Examination

In order to pass the course, you are required to complete two parts:

The Written Assignment
The Oral Examination

Written Assignment Details

The written assignment is meant to examine your ability to transfer what you have learned in the course material into practice. Details can be found in the description of the written assignment.

You can do the assignment whenever you want, from the day it is published to the last day for hand-in before the final examination day (which is to be announced via CANVAS).

Oral Examination Details

Concerning the Oral Examination, we will offer at least two opportunities throughout the semester, depending on actual demand. Each of these examination days will be announced via CANVAS ahead of time. You can then book an examination timeslot (typically of 15 minutes length) in the CANVAS calendar module (you might have to hit a button labeled "hitta möte" or "find meeting" to see all available timeslots).

Please note that in order to participate in an Oral Examination, you need to...

have performed your written assignment, and
have uploaded your written assignment report on the day indicated in the announcement the latest.

If we do not receive your assignment report in time, we cannot assess your work in the Oral Examinations. Should you miss an examination day, or should all timeslots of one examination day be booked, please try again at the next examination day. The last option for examination will be in January. All examinations will be held via zoom, so please make sure you have a computer with stable Internet connectivity, working microphone and webcam (must be on!) for your examination timeslot! Please have an ID card ready for validation, and please make sure you are in an environment where you are not disturbed during the examination.

Please note that we cannot arrange Oral Examinations arbitrarily, so it is not possible to conduct an Oral Examination at your convenience. Please stick to the examination days indicated in the course announcements.

Please note also that we are constantly working on keeping the course material up to date, so there might be some changes in the contents during the semester. This should normally not affect the examination contents that much, so you can do your examinations either with or without the new contents being considered.

Grading

The course grade consists only of the grade for your written assignment. However, failure to be able to adequately discuss your written assignment in the mandatory oral examination will result in a Fail (U) grade, and a good discussion may raise your grade. You can get one of the grades Pass with Distinction (5), Pass with Some Distinction (4), Pass (3) or Fail (U). Please note that all assignments will be checked for plagiarism.
