Examiners

Information

Examination topics

Reading and writing hiragana and katakana including transcription using the modified Hepburn system. Everything covered in class and/or on the e-learning platform (Moodle), including, but not limited to, the presentations/slides, textbook, vocabulary & kanji lists, and forum discussions.

Assessment and permitted materials

One exam at the end of the course, which may be held on site and/or online, written and/or oral (the precise mode varies between exam dates and is announced for each one separately).

Unless otherwise stated, no materials or aids are permitted. Students must do all work on their own, without any outside help. For the purposes of this stipulation, using machine translation services or other software that may be classified as AI counts as outside help as well. It should go without saying that plagiarism is strictly prohibited.
There is a strict zero tolerance policy regarding the above rules, at minimum students deemed in violation immediately fail the course and the reason will show up on their transcript.

N.B. Because of the tight timing, you effectively need to sit and pass the exam at the first opportunity to have a shot at getting into Grammar I and Communication this semester.

The first exam date has two components: a conventional on-site (hand-)written part (80 %) and an online part that covers oral aspects and typing (20 %).

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

More than 60 percentage points are required on the exam to pass the course (>60 → 4/D, >70 → 3/C, >80 → 2/B, >90 → 1/A).
