Aanvullende info mbt evaluatie
The final grade is composed based on the following principles and award values:
The class is divided in pairs. Each pair of students will submit a piece of written work to the lecturer and do an oral presentation of 15 to 20 minutes with the support of a PPT (or other presentation system).
The work takes its roots in the call for tender on which the class was based. The Call for tender documents will be in the online shared folder.
The students will put themselves in the position of the Contracting authority (CA).
Their presentation must be structured in 2 chapters:
What are the aspects the CA should require from the tenderer to be able to select the best entity as contractor What are the award criteria they would create and the number of points for each of them
Each of them will be assessed on the following criteria:
Good understanding of the assignment (15 points)
Clarity and quality of their oral presentation (15 points)
Clarity and quality of their PPT presentation (15 points)
Choice and completeness of the relevant aspects to assess the tenderers (30 points)
Well balanced and objective award criteria (25 points)
Students obtain extra marks based on class participation.
