type of assessment in Estonian
Praktikumi tööde sooritamine ja nende kaitsmine Hinde kujunemine
5 (suurepärane) – üliõpilase teadmised on suurepärased, tema vastused on selged ja terviklikud, üksikasjades korrektsed, arutlevad ja isikupärased, üliõpilane saab täielikult aru esitatava füüsikalisest sisust (91% - 100% kursuse mahust).
4 (väga hea) – üliõpilase teadmised on väga head, tema vastused on selged ja terviklikud, üksikasjades korrektsed, kuid vähem on isikupäraseid seisukohti, esineb väikseid eksimusi esitatava füüsikalise sisu kohta (81% - 90% kursuse mahust).
3 (hea) – üliõpilase teadmised on head, tema vastused on selged, kuid esineb üksikuid vigu ja puudu jääb ka arutlemisest ja isikupärasest vaatenurgast, esineb eksimusi esitava füüsikalise sisu kohta (71% - 80% kursuse mahust) .
2 (rahuldav) –üliõpilase teadmised on rahuldavad, kuid kõik vastused pole selged, esineb sagedamaid vigu (kuid mitte eksimusi põhimõistete ja põhiseaduste tundmisel) ja puudu jääb ka arutlemisest ja isikupärasest vaatenurgast (61% - 70% kursuse mahust) .
1 (kasin) –üliõpilase vastused on nõrgad, on suuremaid vigu, üliõpiolane vajab pidevat abi ja suunavaid küsimusi oma vastuste sõnastamisel (51% - 60% kursuse mahust).
type of assessment in English
Performing all laboratory works and succesful defending
Explanation of numeric grades
5 (excellent) – student's knowledge of theoretical aspects is excellent. The answers are specific, clear and detailed. Student completely masters all terms (91%...100% of course material).
4 (very good) - student's knowledge of theoretical aspects is very good. The answers are specific, clear and detailed but contain less individual view. There may be some minor errors in answers (81%...90% of course material).
3 (good) - student's knowledge of theoretical aspects is good. The answers are clear but contain some errors. Discussion lacks individual approach. Some points of view may be erroneus (71%...80% of course material).
