The leaflets for the seminars are/will be in the Study materials in the IS (the links are also below in the Weekly Schedule).Evaluation of the seminars
In order to get the credit, you need at least 60 out of the total number of 104 points. In total you can get up to 60 points from two seminar tests and up to 44 points for the work in seminars. There is no specific requirement on the distribution of the points - only the total sum matters.Work in seminars
The work in seminars will be tested in the following manner: In each seminar you can be asked to solve/answer one of the obligatory problems (denoted with a "!"). If you solve the obligatory problem correctly and explain the solution well, you get 3 points for the work in seminar. If the solution is not satisfactory, you may get less than 3 points. If you are not asked to solve the obligatory problem, we assume that you were prepared, and you get 3 points.Activity in seminars
The activity in seminars will be tested mainly using +1 point problems (denoted with a smiley). You can get an extra point if you show active approach and ability to apply theoretical knowledge when solving the +1 point problems. To obtain additional points for activity you do not need to prepare the solutions of the +1 point problems in advance. You cannot lose points earned for work in seminars when the +1 point problems are solved.Consultations
