Like any standard science textbook or peer-reviewed article, none of the text, figures and formulae in this Wikipedia book should be believed without scepticism. Check the internal, mathematical and physical self-consistency of the material, check its consistency with the references in each chapter, check its consistency with recent open access summaries of observations and theory that you can find at http://arXiv.org. Feel free to participate in Wikipedia talk pages and to edit the article content yourself once you understand the material and the editorial principles sufficiently.
calibration: lecturer should be able to do full exam in 60 minutes with a score of at least 4.5 (out of 5)
fixed day/time, expected up to 3 hours, allowed up to 5 hours, at KRA as in a traditional exam; repeat exam possible in September as in official program
exam uses a selection of wims exercises made available in exercise mode, i.e. the questions are different but statistically drawn from the same distribution in a multi-dimensional parameter space with N >> 1 parameters
same as for exercises: score rounded to nearest number in the set {0, 2, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5}
differences wrt exercises
stronger prerequisite relation between exercises - you must do the easier exercises before being allowed to try the harder ones
more severe scoring system: instead of
The examination for this subject requires verification that the students are working through examination questions using verifiable tools. Purely online methods of verifying the students' knowledge are insufficient for this course, so a face-to-face "traditional" exam is required. Experience has shown that some students use scientifically invalid methods.
exercise mode:
Scoring is enabled by default - but this doesn't count for any official zaliczenie!
Scoring is not limited by IP range - you can practice from Spain or Fiji if you wish.
5.0 punkty zaliczenia na wims - jak jest obliczony
Możesz zdobyć aż do 5.0 punkty za ćwiczenia w wims:
gdzie
jest ile% done dla danym "sheet" - między 0.0 i 1.0
jest "quality" (jakość) - między 0.0 i 1.0; potęga 0.3 implikuje, że efekt jest, ale jest słabo oprócz jeśli quality jest bardzo niska...

Chromium/Chrome bug: As of 2020 + 2021, the chromium/chrome browser software has a bug that prevents the display of some of the exercises. Firefox is one browser without the bug.
