Assessment criteria

Lectures
Student learning outcomes in the lectures will be verified by a written test. According to Study Regulations BUT test that will be held on two dates (ie base and correction dates time) determined at the end of the semester. In the test the student will have to answer three questions, which will be assessed on a rating scale from 2 to 5. Rating for each question will depend on the completeness and correctness of student answer and will be determined according to the following scale:
The correctness of response. Appraisal
expressed as a percentage of a given response
from 90 to 100 % 5,0
from 80 to 90 % 4.5
from 70 to 80 % 4.0
from 60 to 70 % 3.5
from 50 to 60 % 3.0
less than 50 % 2,0

Conditions of the course design classes:
1 Compulsory attendance - in accordance with the Rules of Study at BUT.
2 Commissioning of completed projects substation and district heating.
3 Defence completed projects.
The evaluation will be subject to the following:
1 Completeness and accuracy of completed projects.
2 Knowledge acquired as part of the exercise - defence projects.
3 Active participation, involvement in exercises - at the end of the semester.
In assessing the completeness and correctness of each project the student will be able to receive a score of 2 to 5 this assessment will depend on the completeness and correctness of the implementation of the project and will be determined according to the following scale:
The correctness and completeness of the Appraisal
Project design
from 90 to 100 % 5,0
from 80 to 90 % 4.5
from 70 to 80 % 4.0
from 60 to 70 % 3.5
from 50 to 60 % 3.0
less than 50 % 2,0
