Bonus marks
- students work on home assignment problems in teams of 2 or 3 students
- for the solution to be accepted the student must participate in the corresponding exercise class,
- for each problem a randomly chosen student (among those claiming they worked through this problem) has to present a solution in the class,
- every problem with an accepted solution gives 0.4 bonus points.
- Example: 40 accepted problems give 16 bonus marks and it is enough to get just 8 marks on the final exam to pass the theoretical part.
Cheat sheet: - on the final exam the students will get two 2-sided A4-pages with a course digest.
- This digest should be put together by the students themselves and send to Serik as a pdf file before December 12, 2012.
