Further Notes About Assessment Methods

Midterm exams and final exams are given as usual closed book and closed note written exams. The team project work will also be included in the term time assessment.

Assessment Criteria

Midterm exam result and project work grade will make up term time grade, which will be added to the contribution of the final exam result to determine the course grade.

Language of Instruction

Turkish

Course Policies and Rules

Students must attend the lecture periods (minimum attendance requirement is 70%). The use of MP3 player, cell phone and ear phones are not allowed during class and during exams. The programmable high memory calculators should not be used during exams.
