Computation of final mark ICG


Autumn 2011

The final mark of Introduction to Computer Graphics (ICG) is determined by the marks for the practical work and the written examination. The mark for the practical work (the assignments) has a weight of 3 and the mark for the written examination has a weight of 1:
finalMark = (markPracticalWork*3 + markWrittenExamination*1) / 4
All marks are computed in 2 decimals and the final mark is rounded to .0 or .5 fraction.

Mark for practical work
The total number of points for "good" assignments is 21. A good assignment is an assignment that meets the requested specifications and delivers the required functionality. So read the text of the assignments carefully to avoid misunderstandings (and lower marks), please. The number of 21 points is equivalent to mark 7 for the practical work.
Via bonus points (e.g. for creativity, more/better functionality, elegant solution) a higher mark can be obtained.
Via malus points (e.g. for limited functionality) a lower mark can be obtained.
The mark of the practical work must be 6 or higher to obtain a final mark in combination with the mark of the written examination.

Mark for written examination
The written examination contains about ten questions about the topics addressed during the lectures. A small algorithm may be asked as well, but this does not involve programming.
Each question has a weight and the sum of all weights equals mark 10 for the written examination.
