Student Assessment
Description
Students are divided in teams, each consisting of three members. Each team has to design and carry a small-scaled experiment using a minimum of three laboratory tools and analyse the results and writes a final report in manuscript format to be submitted by the end of the semester and presents the study at the end of the semester
Assessment includes
a)Written paper (70%)
b)Final presentation (30%)
Student Assessment methods
- Written Assignment (Formative, Summative)
- Performance / Staging (Formative, Summative)
- Labortatory Assignment (Formative, Summative)
