Policies: 

Lab reports:

6 labs = 6 reports
Each report gives up to 1 point.
Each report has to be presented during 2 weeks after the lab!
Later presented reports (before December 18) – multiplied by coefficient 0.8
After December 18 – coefficient 0.6
5 best report will give up to 5 points.
 
Exam prerequisites:
Course ISS0023 is declared (included into Your semester plan),
Laboratory trainings are performed,
Reports are presented and accepted (written report on each laboratory training).
 
Estimation criterion:
Grades are based on the report of the final small practical project (design of a control system).
 
Exam  - up to 72 hours
Small practical project – design of a control system according to given control criteria;
Simulation of the control system;
Analysis of results and writing a report.
2 tasks – each one gives maximum 5 points.
 
Average of 2 exam tasks and labs = YOUR COURSE GRADE
 
Grades:
„5“ - student's knowledge is excellent, his/her answers are clear and complete, accurate in details,
deliberative and individual. Independent thinking. Student is capable of analyzing the problem and possible solutions, proposing his own solution and prooving its efficiency.
„4“ - student's knowledge is very good, his/her answers are clear and complete, accurate in details,
but less individual views. Student is capable of analyzing the problem, finding a suitable solution proving its efficiency.
„3“ - student's knowledge is good, his/her answers are clear, but there are a few errors in the
discussion and lack of personality and individual point of view. Student is capable of analyzing the problem and applying standard methods for is solution.
„2“ - student's knowledge is satisfactory, but all the answers are not clear and student makes more
errors (but not errors in basic concepts) and lack of personality and individual point of view.
„1“ - Student responses are weak, there are major mistakes in arguments (not knowing the content,
mistakes in concept), and student needs constant help and guidance in formulating responses to
questions.
