Exam procedure

The course is graded according to the pass/fail assessment of the oral performance and related questions in conversation with the examiner and censor. At that exam, in order to randomize WE WILL USE RANDOM.ORG SEE ABOVE, which correlates to a question of the respective number. In the following, the possible questions are provided including some of the supporting literature covered in the course. The procedure is as follows:

  1. Student enters room and is seated. Student may bring notes on A4 papers as well as any writing/drawing tools if needed. If you want to bring other physical artifacts, that is fine as well, such as physical prototypes, and physical artifacts developed in the exercises, however, this would just be to supplement your answer or show how your work is related.
  2. Student rolls die yielding a number corresponding to a question
  3. Student may present and discuss the answer to the question for a short time to share their knowledge and demonstrate understanding. This can be approximately 5-8 minutes, which leaves time for questioning by censor and examiner. The entire exam should be complete in the 20 minute time slot thus censor and examiner may ask the student to move to the question phase if the student presents for an excessive amount of time.
  4. Question period, if needed, will explore the depth of knowledge in the topic area. If the performance is already at the level sufficient to pass, the examiners may discuss other aspects of the course for input. Questions are permitted by censor and examiner across all topics of the 3course as needed. This is often used to explore full understanding or to gauge depth in the topics.
  5. Grade is given: pass / fail Answers given at the exam should cover topics related to the question using the identified literature and exercises covered in the course. The student may choose to use examples from their project work in the course if that helps to illustrate and explain. Additional literature is also acceptable, however, the student is urged to base their answers primarily in the course literature
