The final grade (semester credit) consists of the following:
- class attendance: 4 absences are allowed, regardless of whether they are excused or not. In synchronous lectures attendance can also be checked. In case of asynchronous lectures, the attendance is considered watching the video lecture posted on the platform.
- Activity on the e-learning platform - during the semester students will perform a certain number of tasks. The average of these tasks will be a component of the final course grade. Sub-tests may be taken several times within the time limit.
- result from two in-class tests - the first will be a mid-term test covering the material from the first half of the class, the second will be a semester test covering all topics covered from the beginning to the end of the semester. These tests may be taken only on the scheduled dates.
If it is not possible to organize stationary tests (one or both), they will be organized remotely.
The final grade will be calculated according to the following proportions:
- result from tasks completed on the platform - 40%
- result from the in-class tests - 60%.
In order to receive a credit in the first term, a minimum of 60% of points is required.
NOTE - in order to receive a pass in the second term, a minimum of 70% of points should be collected.
The assessment methods and criteria may be changed due to the current epidemic situation. Their equivalents will be established together with course participants, and in accordance with the guidelines of the University of Warsaw. The particular assessment methods and criteria will be presented by the course instructor during the first classes or will be sent through USOS.
