MATRIX MAKING - 65% assessed practical work done in class with a minimum mark of 10 (out of 20); 30% assessed final report, worksheet, test or theoretical work with a minimum mark of 10 (out of 20); 5% for attendance.
The students elligible to sit the exam will have to take a written test about Offset. In the Mould Production component there will be no exam assessment due to the practical nature of these classes.

OFFSET - 60% assessed practical work done in class with a minimum mark of 10
40% written test with a minimum mark of 10
Course mark is calculated as follows: OFFSET - 60% practical work done in class with evaluation equal or superior to 10 (ten) points; 40% written evaluation with evaluation equal or superior to 10 (ten) points:
70% OFFSET; 30% MATRIX MAKING
