Remark on the assessment methods

Since the experimental work is carried out in a group, individual assessment is only possible to a limited extent. This explains the planned exam. Furthermore, the exam adequately tests other skills to be promoted in the module. 

The experimental work includes an oral presentation as group work and accounts for 20% of the grade.

The exam accounts for 80% of the grade.
