Elektroniska frågor
In order to pass the course you must be approved on the electronic quizzes. There will be 3 quizzes with 10 questions each. Each quiz will be released after the corresponding theory has been covered by lectures.
To do the quizzes, you go to http://elearning.eit.lth.se/ and sign up for the course.
The plan for releasing quizzes are
Quiz 1: After lecture 4 (2016-01-26, 15.00)
Quiz 2: After lecture 8 (2016-02-04, 15.00)
Quiz 3: After lecture 13 (2016-02-23, 15.00)
For each quiz you will have 14 days to finish it and you will be allowed one attempt per day (23 hours actually). 8 out of 10 points are needed to pass the quiz. You need to pass all quizzed to pass the course.
Modifications: Since it is the first time with quizzes in this course, some modifications will be applied as we go along. These will be to the students' advantage.
- Some problems statements (and answers) have been a bit unclear in Quiz 1. These have been fixed and improved, but in order to give everyone a better chance of passing, the quiz will be open until Friday (12/2).
- For Quiz 2 and 3 the minimum time between quizzes will be set to 16 hours instead. This makes it easier to plan your time during the days.
Office hours for quizzes: If you have problems passing the quiz there will be dedicated office hours for help and hints. I plan to have one of these a little bit more than half-way through each quiz period. It will be in Martin's office. I will assume that you have tried the quiz several times and that you can discuss your view of the questions.
- Quiz 1 Q&A: Friday 5/2, 12.20-14.00
- Quiz 2 Q&A: Friday 12/2, 12.20-14.00

- Start in time. Do not wait until the last few days.
- Read the questions and answers carefully. The same question can have variations between different attemps.
- If you feel that some answer is incorrectly marked, please notify Martin. Regrading might be necessary if there are errors (and there will be). I will try to make sure that no one is regraded from pass to fail though. Contact me if this accidentally happens.
- You are free to use the course material when answering the quiz.
Note: The quizzes are part of the examination so if you do not pass, you will get a new chance in the re-exam weeks for the course. All quizzes will open the first day of the re-exam week and be open 14 days (May 9 - May 22 and Aug 15 - Aug 28 for 2016). The exact same rules will apply and you only need to do the quizzes that you have not previously passed. You can of course also take the exam if you want in order to get a higher grade. You can do the exam even if you have not yet passed all quizzes. Then you will get your grade when all quizzes are approved.
Transition rules: For those that took the course before 2016, you may also do the quizzes in order to get grade 3. You can, if you want, skip the quizzes completely and just do the exam for grade 3-5. If you take the course 2016 or later, you must complete the quizzes.
