Assessment criteria / Standards of assessment for examinations

  • 16 points may be obtained in total.
  • 12 of those points can be obtained by solving assignments ("Assignment points") and 4 by presenting solutions ("Presentation points").

  • It is required to obtain at least 6 assignment points; in that case,  total points translate into grades as follows:

    >= 8 Points
    		Grade 4
    >= 10 Points
    		Grade 3
    >= 12 Points
    		Grade 2
    >= 14 Points
    		Grade 1
  • There are 8 sessions of 75 minutes.
  • The assignments are handed out via Moodle a week before the session.
  • Assignment points:

    • Up to one hour before the exercise class, you may select online any problem that you have completed. You have then indicated both your thorough understanding and your willingness to present any problem you have selected. When we are ready to discuss a given problem during class, the presenting student will be selected randomly.

    • For the assignment points, your best 7 sessions are counted. For each session, the number of points you receive equals (12/7) times the number of solved problems (as indicated by your selections) divided by the number of problems discussed in that session.

    • In case of honor code violation (e.g. selecting problems without showing up for class, selecting problems without having solved and understood it), all assignment points of the semester are multiplied by 3/4 (in geometric sequence in case of repeated violation) and/or all points of the corresponding session are deleted.
  • Presentation points:
    • Each presentation is worth 4 points; the arithmetic mean of these presentations yields the presentation points.

    • Points are awarded for correctness, clarity, brevity, originality, etc

  • Unregistration is possible until October 31st. After this date, you will get a grade  in any case.
