Activities of teaching and learning:
Lecture, workshop, consultation, self-study task, team work, course paper and practice.
Methods of assessment of learning achievements:
Assessment is carried out during the whole semester and at the exam session. Ten-point criteria-based assessment system as well as cumulative assessment is applied. Outcomes of the study subject are evaluated through interim assessments during the semester (control tasks, written quizzes, examinations (theoretical and practical tasks), laboratory, individual works defense and etc.). The studies of every subject end with an examination or assessment of student's self-study work (project, course paper, practical activity evaluation, etc.). Student's knowledge and skills are assessed at the exam session only after student completes the assigned interim assessment tasks during the semester. Final assessment (mark) consists of marks for interim assessments and an examination mark. Its composition is calculated according to the ratios intended in the description of the subject.
