Assessment methods and criteria

the final grade is an average value of grades of parts, i.e.
- Electric circuits and measurements (50%)
- Electronics (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.
