What is my grade based on?

Evaluation

The evaluation of the tasks takes place at the end of the course.

The Development Project part of the course is assessed using the 360-degree method. This means that students first evaluate themselves and then evaluate their project team members. Client feedback is solicited, and the coaches determine the final grades based on the feedback and the reviews.

The evaluation is conducted with a focus on the learning objectives of the project.

The Academic Writing (Theory Report) is evaluated by the coaches. Assessment is based on the topic, scope, structure, referencing skills, and the overall quality of the work.
