Assessment methods and criteria
Opiskelijan osaamista arvioidaan opiskelijatiimien saamien tiimitehtävien perusteella. Opintokokonaisuuksien jälkeen pidettävillä tiimitehtäväsessioilla muodostuu kuhunkin tiimitehtäviin perustuva yksilö- ja tiimiarviointi. Opiskelijan yksilöosaamisen arviointi tapahtuu tiimitehtäviä koskevien testien perusteella ja tiimiosaamisen arviointi tapahtuu tiimitehtävistä palautettavien esitysten perusteella. Testeistä saatava yksilöarvosana on 0...2 arvosanaa ja tiimitehtävien esityksistä saatava tiimiarvosana on 0...3 arvosanaa. Kullakin tiimitehtäväsessiolla opiskelijan kokonaisarvosana muodostuu näiden summana. Opiskelijan saama opintojakson arvosana muodostuu tiimitehtäväsessioiden kokonaisarvosanojen keskiarvona.
Jokaisten tiimitehtävien testit ja palautukset kuuluvat opintojakson osaamistavoitteisiin ja ne on tehtävä kunkin tiimitehtäväsession aikana.

Läsnäolobonus:
Yli 80 % tunneilla läsnäolo = +4 pistettä tenttiin
70-80 % läsnäolo = +3 pistettä tenttiin
60-70 % läsnäolo = +2 pistettä tenttiin
50-60 % läsnäolo = +1 piste tenttiin
4 pistettä vastaa tentissä vähintään 1 arvosanan nousua.
Hyväksytty suoritus edellyttää, että on päässyt läpi tentistä ja palauttanut vähintään kaksi harjoitustehtävää.
Opintosuoritukset on suunniteltu niin, ettei niiden tekemiseen tule hyödyntää tekoälyä. Opettajalla ei ole käytössä tekoälyn vilpillisen käytön tunnistavaa järjestelmää eikä osaamista. Mikäli opiskelija kerää opintosuoritukset tekoälyn avulla, mutta joutuu myöhemmissä opinnoissaan tai työelämässä pulaan koska ei ole oppinut asiaa oikeasti, kuuluu vastuu tästä opiskelijalle - ei opettajalle eikä oppilaitokselle.
Assessment criteria, fail (0)
Opiskelija on tehnyt alle 50 % harjoitustehtävistä hyväksytysti. Opiskelija on saanut tentistä hylätyn arvosanan tai ei ole käynyt tentissä lainkaan. Harjoitustehtävä(t) on tehty vilpillisesti ja jääneet kiinni TurnitIn-tarkastuksessa.

Opiskelija tuntee päästöjen hallintaan liittyvien komponenttien, mittausmenetelmien ja lainsäädännön peruskäsitteet.
Opiskelija on saanut tentistä hyväksytyn arvosanan. Harjoitustehtävät on tehty ilman vilppiä. Tentin ja harjoitustehtävien painotettu keskiarvo on 1,00-2,49.
Assessment criteria, good (3-4)
Opiskelija tuntee hyvin polttomoottorin yleisimmät komponentit, peruskäsitteet ja toimintatapojen periaatteet.

Assessment methods and criteria
Opiskelijan osaamista arvioidaan opiskelijatiimien saamien tiimitehtävien sekä tutkimusraportin perusteella. Opintokokonaisuuksien jälkeen pidettävillä tiimitehtäväsessioilla muodostuu kuhunkin tiimitehtäviin perustuva yksilöarviointi. Opiskelijan yksilöosaamisen arviointi tapahtuu tiimitehtäviä koskevien testien perusteella. Kunkin tiimitehtäväsession testeistä saatava yksilöarvosana on 0...5 arvosanaa. Opiskelijan tiimiosaamisen arviointi tapahtuu tutkimusraportin perusteella. Tutkimusraporttityön jälkeen palautettavan työryhmän tutkimusraportin tiimiarvosana on 0...5 arvosanaa.
Opiskelijan saama opintojakson arvosana muodostuu yksilöarvosanojen ja tiimiarvosanan keskiarvona.
Jokaisten tiimitehtävien testit on tehtävä kunkin tiimitehtäväsession aikana. Tutkimusraporttityö on suoritettava ajallaan sekä tutkimusraportin palautus on tehtävä palautuspäivään mennessä.
Hyväksytyn suorituksen arviointeja ei voi korottaa.
