Further Notes About Assessment Methods

Theoretical knowledge is given with examples according to weekly schedule. Homework is also given weekly. The student questions related to homework are answered during the following office hour. The exams are organized appropriate so that the student, who solves the homework problems, will succeed.

Assessment Criteria

Homeworks are assigned to the students each week after the weekly lessons. Students strengthen their learning by solving home works. The students' successes is evaluated by mid-term and final exam.
