			Since 2025 an exam has been implemented on the social and economic field trip, to make the grading more similar to the physical field trip.

			* Group paper before the field trip: 20%
			* Fieldwork + group presentation on the field: 10%
			* Fieldnotes of half an excursion day: 10%
			* Written open-book exam: 60%
