ILP: Assessment
This year we will try something unconventional to spice up the course and (hoipefully) make it much more fun for you.
Instead of the usual essay, we are adding a "free style" part where you can develop whatever you want to - as long as it is somehow related to the ILP topic - and defend what you have done in a video presentation. Some rules will apply to that and the marking will be rubrics based, giving you a very large area to express you and your ambitions as you like.
Details are about to follow at a later time, yet the main intention is to make this so much more tangible and joyful for you!
To cover some factual knowledge, there will be an oral examination in person where you will have a pick of 2-3 questions you will have to elaborate. Nothing too fancy - so, if you followed the class and understand the principles you should have no problem at all passing.
Saing this, to get a real good mark will require a considerable amount of work and contribution, within reasonable limits.
For those of you who face special challenges, please let us discuss how we can mitigate. We do have many ideas, but as this is a very personal issue, many will prefer more custom solutions.
