| Remarks : | Some assignment exercises is done during the semester. The module is finished by an oral examination. Admission to the examination will depend upon the assignment exercise journals being delivered on time. The exam is an group exam with individual mark. The mark is based on a general impression about how good the level is in relation to the objective for the module and the handed in journals, the oral presentation and the functionality for each design. The group starts by presenting the points and or problem from the final written assignment exercise as each student makes a well-prepared oral presentation. Each student presentation must only take 5 minutes. The group is required to coordinate the presentations in such a way that the major aspects of the assignments are covered, that the presentations are different and that each individual presentation has a good technical span. After the presentation the supervisors and the external examiner pose questions inspired by the presentations and the written journals for all course assignments. The questions are a priori individual but may - if found relevant by the supervisors or the internal examiner - form the basis of a broader group discussion. During the evaluation by the supervisors and the external examiner, the project group leaves the room. Afterwards the group is summoned and the individual marks are explained. If the student doesn’t pass the examination, the student is given guidance on how to improve the chances of passing. XILINX WebPack is used as a tool for designing digital electronics |
