Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1)

The student masters the content of the course and satisfactorily achieves the Competence Objectives of the course.
The student understands the basics of the subject only a little. The material produced by the student gives the impression that the student has internalized the contents of the course only to a small extent. The descriptions of the theoretical solution models are inconsistent and the justifications fumble. There are significant shortcomings in combining theoretical information with practical building design.
The student has made little use of guidance and lectures. The quality of the material prepared by the student is satisfactory. There are significant deficiencies in the management of theoretical knowledge.
The student takes responsibility for his own learning only to a small extent. He looks at and evaluates things only from his own point of view. The student's attitude is passive.
The student has a lot of absences.
