Activities of teaching and learning:
Lecture, workshop, consultation, self-study task, course project and practice.
Methods of assessment of learning achievements:
A ten-point criteria-based evaluation system and accumulative evaluation are applied: the whole semester is assessed as well as the exam session. 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 project, 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. Mark is calculated according to the ratios defined in the description of the subject.
