Quarter 3 (15,00sp)
| Evaluation method | |
|
| Evaluation method in consultation with student during teaching period | 100 % |
|
| Transfer of partial marks within the academic year | ✔ |
|
| Conditions transfer of partial marks within the academic year | The process is not resitable in either internship option. If a mark
lower than 10/20 is obtained for the process, the whole junior
internship needs to be retaken in the next academic year. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Explanation (English) | Students are given an informed choice in October. During the first
lecture, they receive information about the content and evaluation of
the two types of internships. After this, they make a choice, which is
fixed for that academic year.
The grades within each of the internship options are as follows and
differ from each other:
Research-oriented junior internship:
- Process: 50% NO resit
- Report: 20% Resit
- Presentation: 30% (10% pitch pop science) Resit
Industry-oriented junior internship:
- Process: 40% (rubric process internships) NO resit
- Report: 10% (limited content report) Resit
- Presentation: 30% (20% presentation end of internship + 10% vlog)
Resit
- Growth and reflection: 20% (follow-up document, intervision) Resit |
|
|
|
|
|
| Evaluation conditions (participation and/or pass) | ✔ |
|
| Conditions | The potential allocation of the industry-oriented internship may be reconsidered if the student does not pass Experimental Design in MHD/EHS.
Evaluation is based on 3 elements for the research-oriented internship: practical internship, individual written report and individual oral defense. The internship itself cannot be retaken in the second session, but the report and/or oral defense can.
Evaluation is based on 4 elements for the industry-oriented internship: practical internship, individual written report, individual oral defense and growth and reflection. The internship itself cannot be retaken in the second term, but the report, growth and reflection and/or oral defense can.
|
|
|
|
| Consequences | A student that gains a score lower than 10/20 on one or more of the evaluation elements receives fail as final score. |
