Arviointimenetelmät ja arvioinnin perusteet

Task-based assessment, no exams. The course is assessed on a scale of 1-5 based on the following criteria:
Part 1. Evaluated assignments (50%)
- Professional Email
- Presentation at the trade fair
- Field-related discussion
- Written report
- Professional presentation
Each item on the above list gives the student 0-5 points (max. score 25 points) as follows:
0 = failed/ late return after deadline, task not accepted
1 = pass (CEFR A level)
2 = ok (CEFR A2-B1)
3= good (CEFR B1-B2)
4 = very good (CEFR B2-C level)
5 = excellent (CEFR C level)
The score gives the final grade:
23-25p = grade 5
18-22p = grade 4
13-17 p = grade 3
8-12p = grade 2
5-7p = grade 1
4- 0 p = failed
Part 2. Self-study tasks and continuous demonstration of skills in class
All assignments and self-study tasks must be done even if they are returned late before any credits can be gained. If an evaluated assignment is not accepted when returned, it must be done again at the latest by the end of the course.
In addition, active attendance and participation in class is required due to the nature of the studied subject (small group sessions are all obligatory). Absences cannot be compensated with extra work and there are no exceptions to deadlines.
If the student passes the course, it is not possible to raise the score (and the grade) by redoing some of the assignments.
A failed course can be raised to grade 1 by doing some of the evaluated assignments according to the teacher's instructions.
