> Eligibility for the final examination
- Attendance at all practical sessions
- Theoretical session attendance > 80%
- Module score (assessments, feedback, lectures, surveys) > 80% (individual)
- Submission of individual summary report (at the end of the course)
> Course grade = 50% multiple-choice test + 40% research proposal + 10% module participation
Module participation (10%) = Completion of all formative assessments per lesson + Completion of all feedback forms after each lesson and at the end of the course
Formative assessments per lesson: These will be reopened to help instructors identify knowledge gaps within the class. Students are required to complete these independently so that instructors can provide optimal support after each lecture and during classroom sessions. The Department does not grade these; completion is mandatory and based on academic integrity.
Feedback forms: In addition to formative assessments, the Department requires all students to complete feedback forms to enable instructors to improve teaching quality.
