Assessment Elements
- Non-graded home assignmentStudents are expected to prepare home assignments for some tutorials. These home assignments are not graded and provide a self-check option for students. There is no make-up policy for non-graded home assignments.
- Report preparation and deliveryIf a student from a team of students misses their tutorial presentation and does not have an admissible excuse, this student will get the null grade. Otherwise this student will get the same grade as the rest of the team. An admissible excuse means that a student is ill on the date of their tutorial presentation. If a student from a team of students does not contribute to preparing their tutorial presentation and does not have an admissible excuse this student will get the null grade. Otherwise, this student will be given an opportunity to join another team. An admissible excuse means that a student is ill for no less than 50% of the preparation period which starts on the date the home assignment is announced and ends on the date the tutorial presentation is delivered.
- Final testA student who misses the final test and does not have an admissible excuse will not resit it. The null grade will be given. An admissible excuse means that a student is ill on the final test date. If this student misses the final test with an admissible excuse, we will make it up in due time. A student who fails the course will have a resit exam in all topics of the course in due time. The resit exam weight is 100%. The final test is held either in the classroom or online depending on the epidemiological situation. If held online, the final test will be published on platform Moodle (https://et.hse.ru) and accessible and proctored from platform Examus (https://hse.student.examus.net).
