All assignments will be individually graded. They will account for 30 % of the final grade. Assignments have to be submitted online by the announced deadline. In some semesters, students may also voluntarily participate in small empirical studies, experiments and online questionaires (learning tasks) to receive a bonus of 0.25 points to the final exam. Assignments and bonus of 0.25 points will remain valid for the repetition exam in the same semester.
