Evaluation
Evaluation: Smart Factory Design (B-KUL-B79476)
Explanation
Final score (/20) = C1 x P1 + C2 x P2
Cx are the weight factors and Px the scores (/20)
P1: written exam on theory
P2: workshop participation and assignment report/presentation
C1 = 60%, C2 = 40%
Information about retaking exams
Written exam to redetermine the P1 score (analogue to first examination period). Half of the P2 score is transferred to the second examination period. The other half will be determined by a practical exercise related to the project.
