|---|
Student passes all individual study tasks in moodle course.
Student:
1) creates spreadsheet calculations of vehicle motion
2) conducts practical measurements on vehicle motion and analyses measurement results in a report.
Passing practical assignments is 50% of the course outcome and is mandatory to take part in exam. |
