Examination rules
- Admission rules for final:
- Assemble teams of 3-4 members, create a svn repo at uni-koblenz.de, grant access to heinz, laemmel, and softlang, and send the login names of team members and the svn repo URL to ed.znelbok-inu|znieh#ed.znelbok-inu|znieh with "plt1415" in the subject line. (Note: you must use the assignment numbers 1, 2, … as top-level directory names in your repo.)
- Each team must submit at least 6 acceptable solutions of 9 assignments by the deadline through their svn repo. Assignments may break down into multiple options. In this case, a team's solution is considered, if at least one of the options is acceptable.
- Each student must present one solution successfully once.
- Exam admission is inherited from previous editions ever since 2010/11.
Rationale: The assignments are designed to help understand all material covered in the lecture. Also, the assignments help with effective preparation for the exam. Upcoming assignments are discussed briefly in the lab. Completed assignments are discussed in detail in the lab on the grounds of student presentations and a reference solution prepared by the lab assistant. All submitted solutions are briefly reviewed by the lab assistant to determine whether the solutions are "acceptable". The criteria for accepting a solution are discussed and calibrated in the lab. (Essentially, simple assignments must be solved more or less correctly and completely whereas more complex assignments may already be acceptable if there is an insightful approach to the problem that is perhaps not carried through correctly or completely.) The lab assistants calls up students to present their solution. The idea is to give strong preference to students who had not yet presented before. As there are typically multiple assignment options and different solution options as well, there could be a number of student presentations.
