Student Assessment
Description
Students are examined with open books in all 3 subjects: Water supply-Sewerage-Irrigation. One exercise in each subject. Sometimes there are theoretical questions. Grading is distributed 40-40-20% or 40-30-30%, depending on the difficulty of the exercise.
Student Assessment methods
- Written Exam with Short Answer Questions (Summative)
- Written Exam with Problem Solving (Formative, Summative)
