- Formal lectures on the analysis and the reporting of experimental data
Evaluation methods
Evaluation methods :
The labs are only organised during the semester. The labs cannot be done during the summer. Based on Art. 78 of the RGEE, there is no August/September session for this course. The marks obtained in June are kept for the next session.
- Continuous assessment during the labs : 50% of the final grade
- Oral examination based on the lab reports (portfolio) / presentation by the students of some of their results to aswner questions asked by the teachers : 50% of the final grade
- The marks can be individualized for the different members of a group based on their effective participations to the activities during the semester and the oral examination.
