Exam schedules
There is no exam on this course. The grading is based on tasks/assignments.
All of the assignments have to be returned by deadline. If you do not meet the deadline, you will get one grade lower grade from that task that you would otherwise.
All assignments have to be returned by the end of the course, unless otherwise agreed with the teacher before the end of the implementation. If you want to ask for this, contact the main responsible teacher (Piia/Henna) before the end of the course. In this kind of a case your course grade will be one number lower than otherwise. If you do not take contact before the end of the course, you cannot pass the course.
In rare cases you can retake a failed assignment. If you want to ask about this, you need to contact the main responsible teacher. Also, in this case your course grade will be one number lower than otherwise.
An accepted study attainment cannot be improved.
