2. Assessment - the hidden curriculum The aim of the study goals objectives Teaching and learning methods: PBL and project work Forms of the exams and criteria

3. Basic assumptions • Examination is dominating the students learning approach • Criteria for evaluation are crucial for the learning process • Evaluation is a basic part for the learning process (reflection) • (Personal skills, metalearning etc. need formative evaluation forms)

4. How to Assess/Evaluate students ? What kind of questions should we ask: • To monitor if the students have reached the learning goals of the semester • To improve the students learning process Discuss this for 5 minutes

5. Guidelines for Project EvaluationE study board: 1. Project conclusion (Presentation): • At the project conclusion the group will present the whole project - all group members equally. There will be no discussion or evaluation of the quality of the project. The conclusion should normally take 10 minutes per student but normally not more than 1 hour per group.

6. 2. Examination (individual): • The examination may be based on questions prepared in advance on the basis of the project report including all central subjects within the project unit goal. • Each group member is given 35-45 minutes for examination and voting. Concerning B.Sc.-, M.Sc.-, and Master-thesis projects each group member may be given 15 minutes more. • The evaluation is based on both the written report and the oral presentation. The report is indirectly part of the evaluation and will not be graded separately. • The members of the project group are not allowed to be present in the examination room before they are to be examined or have been examined.

7. 3. Discussion of the report • When all group members have been examined and all grades are given the group will be offered feedback to the project report. Note: • From fall 2007 grades are given according to the 7-step scale. • The students are entitled to receive the grade immediately after the examination. However, the students and the supervisor may decide that grades are given when all group members have been examined. The students are entitled to receive the grade in private. • During the voting the examiner and the supervisor must take notes about the presentation and the assessment of grades to be used in case of possible complaints. The notes must be kept for at least 1 year further until a possible complaint is finished.
