Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
To be approved without Exam: FINAL MARK = F/E(60%) + PL (40%)
where:
F [main test](60%) = written test to be held at the end of the semester.
For those taking the exam: FINAL MARK = Exam(60%) + PL(40%) The PL component is mandatory and consists in two parts with two partial reports and a presentations/discussion at the end.
For the exams season the formula is: FINAL MARK = Exam(60%) + PL (40%)
where:
This applies to the Normal or Appeal Exams and is only for ADMITTED students!
