Further Notes About Assessment Methods

A sufficient number of students participating in the course get marks in exams and presentation by multiplying the percentage of specified in the table. (%50 of presentation marks are determined by course instructor and the other %50 part are determined by students that participate the presentation and the average of marks are calculated.)

Assessment Criteria

The theoretical background explained in the lectures is evaluated through two midterms, a project and a final exam.

Language of Instruction

Turkish

Course Policies and Rules

Active student participation is expected during the lectures.
