5. EVALUATION Evaluated activities and their weights (according to the License Studies Regulation): homework realization (3) 30 points seminar evaluation (tests, answers) 10 points laboratory evaluation (is a must) 10 points final exam theory set (3) 30 points final exam problems set (2) 20 points Total: 100 points Minimal request for graduating laboratory graduation; getting minimum 50 % from the total number of points of the final exam Final mark calculus the final mark can be obtained by summing the acquired number of points for each evaluated activity (maximum 100 points) and, usually, rounding the result in the benefit of the student according to the presence to the courses and the structure of the final exam partial marks. 6. METHODOLOGICAL METHODS Continuous modernization of the present course; The course presentation, in the present form, will be on-line on the faculty web site; The present course is available for the students in electronic form; The teaching process is a combined one, using the blackboard and a video projector; The course master specifies the homework to be realized by the students, with precise timing; The seminar teaching stuff solve problems and specify homework and tests; There are dedicated laboratory teaching materials; The laboratory thematic starts in the designated laboratory as practical works and will be continued at home as homework; At the designated laboratory the students can use a dedicated computer network in order to accomplish the practical works, homework and for individual study of the available auxiliary teaching materials.
