Energy Management - Evaluation from MOOC, LAB 1 and LAB 2

3 janeiro 2018, 13:56 Carlos Augusto Santos Silva


Dear all, 
I would like to wish you all a great new year and all the luck for the exam season that is starting. 
Please find the grades of the MOOC and Lab activities in the following link
https://fenix.tecnico.ulisboa.pt/downloadFile/845043405457987/GEne_20172018_MOOCs_LAB1_LAB2.pdf


These grades are not final and i would like to stress the following points:
  1. The grades are not yet final, which means that i can review the grades. 
  2. The review of the grades of the MOOC and LABs will be done together with the revision of the exam.
  3. However, if there is a significant mistake (like your grade is missing or is not the same to the one in the platform), please send me an email immediatly. 
  4. Regarding the MOOCs, some of you have complained about the final evaluation. I have tried to address al lthe cases, but i might have forgot to address a few, lost in the emails. In general, i would say i did not find any particular mistake in the evaluation. 
  5. Regarding the LAB1, please find an example of results in the filehttps://fenix.tecnico.ulisboa.pt/downloadFile/845043405457985/EMLab1_MeasurmentProtocol2017_final_withanswers.pdf
  6. The LABs were corrected automatically (except for the justification answers), after cleaning your answers from typos, and the generic rules were:
    • For those of you that submmited more than once, i only considered the first submission. In 80% of the cases, the grade was better after your first submission than after the correction
    • In some cases, the answers were exactly the same. For the justification answer, i did not consider answers that were excatly the same (so everybody with the same text had 0 in this question).
    • The web form had a type reagrding the power of the LED E27 lamp (it as 14 W and not 21 W). In any cae, i considered both answers.
    • Those of you that only considered one lamp in the T8 fixture, i considered 50% of the response. I believe the guide was clear and the webform.
    • All the measurments were accepted within a certain interval
  7. Remember that the LAB can only improve your grade, so if the result was not as good as you expected, don´t worry, it will not decrease your exam grade.
  8. The average grade of the MOOC was 87% and the average grade of the LAB1 was 72%.

I would like to thank you for participating in the activities, i hope you have learned and enjoy and prepare yourself for the exam. On January 12th and January 15th in the afternoon i will do a class to answer all your questions.

best regards

Carlos SIlva
