Evaluation scale

0-5

Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1)

The student is able to recognise the development of new laboratory methods in the chosen area of clinical laboratory expertise. The student can describe the implementation and development of new clinical laboratory methods.

Assessment criteria, good (3)

The student keeps up with the development of new laboratory methods in the chosen area of clinical laboratory expertise and applies acquired knowledge in multiprofessional teams. The student is able to plan, implement and develop new clinical laboratory methods.

Assessment criteria, excellent (5)

The student anticipates the development of new laboratory methods in the chosen area of clinical laboratory expertise and applies acquired knowledge in multiprofessional teams. The student is able to plan, execute and evaluate the implementation and development of clinical laboratory methods.

Assessment criteria, approved/failed

Failed: The student does not anticipate the development of new laboratory methods in the chosen area of clinical laboratory expertise. The student cannot describe the implementation and development of new clinical laboratory methods.

Assessment methods and criteria

The course has three sections and three assesment tasks, comprising the following credits:
1.New methods in the clinical laboratory (2 cr)
The student makes a written assignment on a chosen method
The student writes an evaluation of another assignment
Evaluation 0 - 5
2.Printed Electronics in Clinical Applications and POC-tests (1,5 cr)
The student makes a plan for development
Evaluation Passed/Failed
3.Clinical Mass Spectrometry, (1,5 cr)
http://clinchem.aaccjnls.org/content/62/1
The students make a moodle page in Finnish with material taken from Clinical Chemistry Jan 2016
Evaluation Passed/Failed
The course completion requires:
• active engagement with the course material
• completing compulsory assessment tasks detailed above
The course evaluation is based on adequately achieving learning outcomes as evidenced in
the assessment tasks.
