Assessment methods and criteria

The final grade of the course is calculated by combining the converted assignment completion activity and exam score of the course.
Assignments + exam = final grade
1 + 4 = 5

You can pass the course with 1, by only achieving over 50% based on the available assignment points during the course.
You can pass the course by only passing the exam, but the maximum grade that can be received through the exam is 4.
Conversion tables for % to grade will be in the online learning environment
