Description of the organization and tasks of students’ independent work

During the practical classes the students continue to solve their tasks independently until a qualitative result is achieved (the result is evaluated during the next practical classes), the amount of work is 40h

Criteria for Evaluating Learning Outcomes

The course work evaluation is determined by:
1. Quality of drawing of technical images and compliance with standards;
2. Quality of the design of work and compliance with the rules of engineering work;
3. Quality of the description text;

4. Understanding the elements of the scheme diagrams and their operation.
