Evaluation

Period 1    Credits 4,00

Evaluation method
Practical evaluation during teaching period40 %
Transfer of partial marks within the academic year
Oral exam30 %
Open questions
Practical exam30 %
Transfer of partial marks within the academic year
Evaluation conditions (participation and/or pass)
Conditions Presence at the practicals is obligatory
Consequences Students who are unauthorized absent at on ore more practicals, receive as final grade for the course 'N-unauthorized absence' and have to attend the practicum in the next academic year and have to meet the requirements (e.g. a signed report) to receive their final grade. The student needs to re-enroll in the course in the next academic year. In this case, partial grades can be transferred to the next academic year.
