<strong>Student</strong> <strong>assessment</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>evaluation</strong> <strong>criteria</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Applied</strong><br />
<strong>Marine</strong> Conservation Ecology<br />
The grading system is available in the course plan <strong>and</strong> can be described as follows:<br />
A = 95% = excellent<br />
B = 85% = very good<br />
C = 75% = good<br />
D = 65% = satisfactory<br />
E = 60% = sufficient<br />
Fx = 50% = insufficient<br />
F < 50% = totally insufficient<br />
The grade will mainly be given based on the quality of your individual assignment.<br />
However, the level of participation in the group discussions will also be included in<br />
the <strong>assessment</strong>.<br />
In the <strong>evaluation</strong> we will assess the quality in relation to:<br />
1. Stated of objective/s<br />
2. Relevant level <strong>for</strong> the stated focus group<br />
3. Layout of the assignment / written <strong>and</strong> oral presentation<br />
4. How clear the message came across<br />
5. Factual / scientific contents<br />
6. Conclusion / did the assignment meet the objective<br />
Description of the grade levels:<br />
A: Excellent underst<strong>and</strong>ing in <strong>Applied</strong> <strong>Marine</strong> Conservation Ecology. The student has<br />
demonstrated in depth knowledge <strong>and</strong> has an excellent underst<strong>and</strong>ing of the subject<br />
area. He/she has demonstrated excellence in the ability to research, test, discuss <strong>and</strong><br />
present (oral <strong>and</strong> written) in<strong>for</strong>mation in the subject area<br />
B: Very good underst<strong>and</strong>ing in <strong>Applied</strong> <strong>Marine</strong> Conservation Ecology. The student<br />
has demonstrated in very good knowledge <strong>and</strong> underst<strong>and</strong>ing of the subject area.<br />
He/she has demonstrated a great ability to research, test, discuss <strong>and</strong> present (oral <strong>and</strong><br />
written) in<strong>for</strong>mation in the subject<br />
C: Good underst<strong>and</strong>ing in <strong>Applied</strong> <strong>Marine</strong> Conservation Ecology. The student has<br />
demonstrated in good knowledge <strong>and</strong> underst<strong>and</strong>ing of the subject area. He/she has<br />
demonstrated a good ability to research, test, discuss <strong>and</strong> present (oral <strong>and</strong> written)<br />
in<strong>for</strong>mation in the subject<br />
D: Satisfactory underst<strong>and</strong>ing in <strong>Applied</strong> <strong>Marine</strong> Conservation Ecology. The student<br />

demonstrated a fair ability to research, test, discuss <strong>and</strong> present (oral <strong>and</strong> written)<br />
in<strong>for</strong>mation in the subject<br />

has demonstrated an acceptable ability to research, test, discuss <strong>and</strong> present (oral <strong>and</strong><br />
written) in<strong>for</strong>mation in the subject<br />

not demonstrated an acceptable ability to research, test, discuss <strong>and</strong> present (oral <strong>and</strong><br />
written) in<strong>for</strong>mation in the subject<br />
F: Totally insufficient underst<strong>and</strong>ing in <strong>Applied</strong> <strong>Marine</strong> Conservation Ecology. The<br />
student has given a confused impression of knowledge <strong>and</strong> underst<strong>and</strong>ing of the<br />
subject area. He/she lack ability to research, test, discuss <strong>and</strong> present (oral <strong>and</strong><br />
