| Evaluation conditions (participation and/or pass) | ✔ |
|
| Conditions | Presence at the Journal clubs and tutor sessions is obligatory.
The evaluations consists of multiple parts. For all parts of the evaluation, at least a score of 8/20 must be obtained in order to pass for the course. |
|
|
|
| Consequences | Students who are unjustified absent at one ore more journal clubs or tutor sessions, receive as final grade for the course an "N - unjustified absence" and have to attend the missed journal club(s) in the next academic year to receive their final grade. The students 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.
A student who achieves a score lower than 8/20 on one or more parts of the evaluation will receive 'F - fail' as final result. This final result is not tolerable.
A student who scores at least 8/20 for all parts of the evaluation receives as score the weighted average of the different points. This final mark is tolerable. Eg. 8/20 + 16/20 = 12/20 (passed). |
