Introduction

None

Required preliminary courses

Grade scale A-F

Learning outcomes

All answers are assessed by one examiner.

An external examiner is used regularly, at a minimum of every third completion of the course. When selecting answers for external evaluation, a minimum of 10 percent of the answers shall be included, with no fewer than 5 answers. The external examiner’s assessment of the selected answers shall benefit all students.

Teaching and learning methods

The course consists of lectures and seminars on techniques and methods, as well as a project to be carried out in individually / groups (2-3 students). The project will be chosen from a portfolio of available problems. The students will work individually or in groups and will submit the code and a project report.

Practical training

Lab sessions.

Course requirements

None.

Assessment

The assessment will be based on a portfolio of the following:

  • A group project delivery (2-4 students), consisting of a report (7500-3000 words) and code
  • An individual oral examination (20 minutes)

The weight of the two parts is 50% each.

The project report should be between 7500-3000 words. Both the code/program and the report will be evaluated. The comprehensiveness of the code/program is evaluated with the assumption that each student in the group has committed about 60 hours towards developing the solution. As a general guideline, the code/program carries a stronger weight than the report.

The portfolio will be assessed as a whole and the exam cannot be appealed.

New/postponed exam

In case of failed exam or legal absence, the student may apply for a new or postponed exam. New or postponed exams are offered within a reasonable time span following the regular exam. The student is responsible for registering for a new/postponed exam within the time limits set by OsloMet. The Regulations for new or postponed examinations are available in Regulations relating to studies and examinations at OsloMet.

Permitted exam materials and equipment

All aids are permitted, provided the rules for plagiarism and source referencing are complied with.

For the oral exam, students will not have access to computers or other aids.

Grading scale

Grade scale A-F.

Examiners
