Assessment

The current formal assessment for undergraduate BTN315 Bioinformatics module includes:

1) Practical assignment

2) Class test

3) Final Examination

This contributes to the final pass mark

The other types of assessment i use in my Introduction to Bioinformatics course include:

1) Practical assignments for participants to evaluate their level of understanding

I also read theses and manuscript drafts of my postgraduate students and give them constructive criticism as part of their assessment. Here i focus on novelty, interpretation of results, mastering of techniques and contribution to the scientific community.
