Learning outcomes
The aim of this tutorial is that students gain experience in problem solving and performing calculations in physical chemistry.
Assessment criteria
Classes are divided into two blocks ending with tests. The average of the results obtained is converted into final grades according to the list below:
0-50.00% resit test
50.01-60.00% dst (3)
60.01-70.00% dst+ (3+)
70.01-80.00% db (4)
80.01-90.00% db+ (4+)
90.01-99.75% bdb (5)
99.76-100.00% bdb+ (5+)
To pass the course, each test must be passed (the student must obtain at least 50.01% of the points). Persons who obtained 50% or less (in one or both tests) take a re-sit test covering the failed material (in one or both tests). The resit test takes place after both partial tests.
The final score will be a weighted average of the results obtained during the first attempt at the test and the resit test according to the following formula:
P=1/3x(PI) + 2/3x(Padd)
Where:
P – final result in percentage,
PI - percentage result obtained during the first attempt at the test (in case of correcting one test - percentage result from the first attempt at it; in case of correcting both tests - percentage results from test I and test II),
Padd - percentage result obtained on the additional test.
The condition for passing is to obtain a P value above 50%.
Attendance at classes is obligatory (two unexcused absences allowed)
