| Evaluation conditions (participation and/or pass) | ✔ |
|
| Conditions | Presence at the practicals is obligatory.
The practical report, assignment and presentation are part of the final result.
Each student has to contribute sufficiently to the group assignment. |
|
|
|
| Consequences | Students who are absent for the practical and/or the presentation have to attend the practical/presentation in the next academic year and have to meet the requirements for the respective parts to receive their final grade.
A student who possibly has participated significantly less in the group assignment than the other group members, will follow the free-riding behavior process as explained on Blackboard. During this process, the student will receive a temporary score “X” (no exam grade available). If free-riding behavior is identified, the student will receive “F” (fail) as final score for the course, and will receive an alternative assignment during the second-chance exam period. The results of the other evaluation parts can be retained for the second-chance exam if the student has passed or had received a tolerable mark. |
|
|
|
| Additional information | When working in team, sufficient input from each student is expected. Peer evaluation is done by the Buddycheck program on Blackboard. For each student, the score of the group work will be multiplied by the factor that is calculated by this program. The method of calculation and the way this process works, is further explained on Blackboard. If there is a potentially significant smaller contribution, the process regarding free-riding behavior will be started. |
