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.

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.

Hyväksytyn suorituksen arviointeja ei voi korottaa.

Assessment methods and criteria

Opiskelijan osaamista arvioidaan tutkimusraportin ja työselostusten perusteella. Työkierron aikana palautettavien työselostusten ja tutkimusraportin arvioinnin tekee opettaja. Opintojakson arvosana muodostuu opiskelijan tutkimusraportista saaman arvosanan sekä siihen laskevasti, neutraalisti tai korottavasti vaikuttavien työselostusten perusteella.
Jokainen työkierron työ on suoritettava ajallaan sekä työselostusten ja tutkimusraportin palautukset on tehtävä palautuspäivään mennessä.
Hyväksytyn suorituksen arviointeja ei voi korottaa.
