Registration and Grading
Registration
Registration to the course platform is done by clicking the REGISTER link on the upper right-hand corner of the page and filling in your details. If you use a narrow screen, open the menu first and then choose the registration link.
If you have previously worked on courses offered on the platform, you can use the same account here. When you work while logged in, your progress is stored on the course platform.
If you are an Aalto student, or an exchange student at Aalto, you must register using your @aalto.fi email address and you must enroll to the course through SISU. Up-to-date information is available on MyCourses.
Note that this course is available for credit only until the end of July, 2026. After that, it will be available for self-study without credit until archived.
Grading
The course is graded using pass/fail. To pass the course, you must collect at least 90% of the available course points.
The course consists of six parts. The points are accumulated from all coursework in the chapters (even the quizzes in this course practicalities part).
Requesting grading
Before requesting grading, make sure that you have the required number of course points.
Your current course progress is as follows:
| Course Instance | Progress (%) | Points Earned | Max Points |
|---|
If a course that you are taking has deadlines, please be aware that the progress shown does not account for the deadlines (i.e., points after deadlines are shown above, even though they are be counted towards your final grade).
Both Aalto students and others will need the personal code shown below when requesting grading.
For Aalto students
The course uses a rolling grading schedule. Once you have completed the course, request grading through the MyCourses page of the currently running course version.
