Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1)
The student is not very actively taking part of web based conversations. The student is able to take a stance on/answer questions which the lecturer has provided but the student is not well at all or weakly capable to bring out the familiarization to the materials and literature and the ability to recognize the special features of financial communications. The student is able to produce financial texts but the structure of text is disconnected and incoherent. Communication is sender-oriented and the argumentation is biased and scant and illustration is scant and irrelevant.
