Assessment
Continuous assessment in this course involves three compulsory assessment elements: a written test, group work to be presented in practical classes and a short reflection paper (critical analysis of a text/article), with no grade lower than 9.5 in any of the assessment elements.
The final grade will be based on the three assessment elements, weighted as follows: written test (55%) group work (30%) reflection paper (15%).
Students who obtain a mark equal to or higher than (10) will be considered to have passed.
In the normal and appeal assessment, students must take a theory test and a practical test, covering all the content of the theory and practical classes. A mark of less than 10 in any of the assessment tests will result in failure.
The final grade will be obtained according to the following weighting: Theoretical test (60%); Practical test (40%).
