Assessment methods and criteria
the final grade is an average value of grades of parts, i.e.
- Introduction to electric circuits and electrical measurements (50%)
- Introduction to electronics and telecommunication (50%)
Student must pass both parts to get the final grade in this course.
Non-returned tasks in any assessed task results to grade -3.
Only on time returned tasks are valid.
Assessment criteria, fail (0)
Introduction to electric circuits and electrical measurements
Introduction to electronics and telecommunication
Any deviation from grade 5 results to degradation of grade.
