Assessment and permitted materials
Assessment
The assessment consists of the following parts:(i) Three Exams, a 45 min:
Part I, April 9, 2024, (HS 1, 13:15-14:00), on the correspond. topics covered in the course.
Part II, May 2, 2024 (HS 4 13:15-14:00); on the corresponding topics covered in the course.
Part III, May 2, 2024 (HS 4, 14:00-14:45); on R.Questions can consist of multiple-choice questions, analytical derivations and interpretations of empirical results.For the Exam the Moodle system will be used. Hence, it is necessary to have your laptops with you!ii) Take-home assignments. Students have to solve and have to hand in written assignments. They can consist of multiple-choice questions, analytical derivations, and interpretations of empirical results. Solved exercises have to be uploaded to the Moodle system before the start of the exercise part on Tuesday, no matter whether you choose to attend the exercise part Tuesday or on Thursday.Necessary material for (i-iii): you need a laptop, for all exams moodle will be used.Grading:
For the final grade the individual assignments count as follows:
i) Three exams: 75%, 25% each
ii) Assignments: 25%
iii) Extra points for class room participation in the “exercise block”, 3% per participation.Important: Aside from the three assignments, there will be no additional examination possibilities afterwards.To pass the course, a minimum level of 50% has to be reached.Rating:
[86%; 100%]: 1.0
[74%; 86%): 2.0
[62%;74%): 3.0
[50%; 62%): 4.0
[0; 50%): 5.0Examination language: Students can do the examinations in English.
