Assessment

Portfolio assessment of a take-home examination counting about 20 % and a final 4 hour written examination counting about 80 %. All components in the portfolio are assessed as a whole and one combined grade is given. Assessment scale: Letter grades A-F. Postponed examination (sections 17 and 21): Students with valid grounds for absence will be offered a postponed examination. Postponed take-home examination is arranged during the semester if possible, otherwise early in the following semester. Postponed written examination is held early in the following semester. See indicated sections in Regulations for examinations at the UiT The arctic university of Norway for more information.
