Further Notes About Assessment Methods

There will be minimum 2 projects, averaged out grades for which will be 25 % of the term grade. A mid-term examination will be averaged and affect the term grade by 25 %. Middterm and Project grades determine term grade which will be 50 % of the resulting grade. Final exam will be 50 % of the resulting grade.
