Rules

To pass the course, the student has to collect 4 grades:

  • The grades are in category: "presentation", "essay", "video demo", "executable tutorial", "contribution to open-source", "course automation", "feedback" (choose four out of them, at most one in the same category, it is not necessary to cover everything).
  • The grading criteria page is the unique reference which explains how to pass / pass with distinction.
  • The strict deadline for essays, tutorials, contributions to open-source, course automation is April 30, 23h59 Stockholm time; and "demo"; the strict deadline for repeated tasks (all) is May 31, 23h59 Stockholm time.
  • The student proposes a category and a topic, which is discussed and accepted by the TA. The proposal is made as a pull-request on this repository. The four graded contributions must have little overlap.
  • The same student cannot choose the same topic for two different tasks. The four tasks should cover different aspects of DevOps.
  • 4 Pass means a final E, 3 Pass / 1 Distinction means a final D, 2 Pass / 2 Distinction means a final C, 1 Pass / 3 Distinction means a final B, 4 Distinction means a final A
  • Group work is encouraged (max 3 persons) but you cannot be with the same persons for more than 2 projects. You can do a work alone for one or at most two projects.
  • A failed task requires to pass it again at the end of the course, based on the feedback from the failure. A repeated task cannot be passed with distinction. A task can only be repeated once.
  • If the whole course is failed, no grades are kept if the student registers again to the course the year after.
  • After a proposal has been merged, the topic of that proposal cannot be changed.
