Explanation

1. Establishment of the final grade  

The total point of this OPO is calculated based on the published partial grades with following weights:  

• Partial grade for Lecture: 40%  
• Partial grade for the Lab sessions: 60%  

The only exception to this is described in the faculty supplement to Article 66 of the OER. 

2. Establishment of the published component marks

The partial grade for "Lecture" is an integer out of 20. It expresses an assessment of the student's performance based on a written/oral test consisting of open questions and organized before the examination period.

The partial grade for "Lab sessions" is an integer out of 20. It expresses an assessment of the student's performance based on: 

Students will deliver a report in pairs: this is a complete bundle containing all the info for a machine operator to produce the intended workpiece. The students deliver a physical workpiece on which a significant part of the operations prepared with the CAM software have been performed. During the final lab session, the students take an individual knowledge test. The lab sessions are evaluated as permanent evaluation throughout the year (bonus/malus +2).

3. Absences

• Unauthorized absence during the exams of the lectures leads to NA as final mark for the lectures.
• Unauthorized absence during one or more of the lab sessions leads to NA as final mark for the lab sessions.

If you are absent during class weeks, notify the education ombuds the same day. Furthermore, contact the teachers with whom you missed compulsory sessions or evaluation moments as soon as possible and certainly within the week. In case of absence during the examination period, inform the examination ombudsperson the same day.

When needed, additional information on the evaluation activities is provided during the lessons and/or made available on the Toledo pages of the course.

If the university decides that it is confronted with situations of general force majeure or situations where the safety and health of members of the academic community of KU Leuven may be endangered and changes to the teaching and evaluation activities occur as a result, these changes will be communicated via Toledo.

Information about retaking exams

This course unit allows partial mark transfers in case of partial pass mark:

• T4hCM2 - Computer-Aided Manufacturing: Lecture (during and beyond academic year)
• T4pCM2 - Computer-Aided Manufacturing: Lab Session (during and beyond academic year)

Within this course there are partial transfers in case of a successful partial result (>10/20), if not successful there is a re-examination possible in the third exam period:
-T3hCM1 - Computer-aided manufacturing: lecture => Written exam with open questions.
-T3pCM1 - Computer-aided manufacturing: lab session => The student makes an alternative work preparation with the CAM software without execution on the machine and is presented orally. The student also retake the individual knowledge test. The permanent evaluation score earned during the first semester wil be maintained.
