Evaluation are given by attending to lectures (14 times), presentation (3), reporting (1), and questions (3).
[Attendance] 28 points =14 classes×2points/class at maximum. Evaluation is done by multiplying attendance percentage. This is accounted as personal points.
[Presentation] 42 points =7 presenters×6 points/presenters. Each presentation is evaluated from 0 to 2 by the three faculty members, in terms of contents, story, clearness, structure, and duration time of the presentations. This is group points.
[Reporting] 12 points, evaluated from 0 to 4 by the three faculty members, which is group points
[Questions] 18 points is given to whom makes questions to the presentations, evaluated from 0 to 2 by the three faculty members. This is personal points.
[Total] 100 points is consisted from 46 (28+18) personal points plus 54 (42+12) group points.
