Assessment methods and criteria

Arviointi tapahtuu Hyväksytty/Hylätty -asteikolla tai mikäli opiskelija haluaa arvosanan, hänen tulee toimittaa tieto suoritettujen tehtävien määrästä ja oikein suoritettujen tehtävien prosentista.
yli 91%-100% oikein, kaikki tehtävät tehty= 5
yli 81%-90% oikein, kaikki tehtävät tehty= 4
yli 71%-80% oikein, kaikki tehtävät tehty=3
yli 61%-70% oikein, kaikki tehtävät tehty=2
yli 51%-60% oikein, kaikki tehtävät tehty=1
alle 50%, ei arvosteltavissa
