E3. Able to plan and organize independent
work and learning, necessary for
continuous professional self-development,
and to apply acquired knowledge and
abilities, changing the scope and nature of
activities, to adapt to new situations.
Activities of teaching and learning:
The material of all study modules is
mastered during classroom and student
independent work. Auditorium work
includes lectures, exercises, laboratory
work, etc. The student's independent work
is the understanding of theoretical
material, preparation for lectures,
laboratory work and exercises, mid-term
assessments for semester assignments and
the exam, preparation of homework and
projects. The main teaching methods are:
lectures, exercises, laboratory work, group
work, case studies, consulting seminars,
project activities, etc. In addition to the
basic learning methods, the study program
will be characterized by innovative
teaching methods: project-based, designbased, problem-based and experiential
learning, when projects are carried out,
problems are solved, using the
competencies of various fields in a
complex manner. Part of the study subjects
will be taught by teaching teams consisting
of employees of two or more departments
and scientific institutes. The program will implement a synthesis of theory and
practice, where practical work will solve
real engineering problems using advanced,
complex research, design, analysis and
information processing tools.
Methods of assessment of learning
achievements:
The student's knowledge, abilities and
skills acquired while studying the module
during the semester are evaluated and
registered in the academic database
according to the calendar for the
preparation and evaluation of tasks
provided for in the module. The evaluation
for the independent work tasks of the
semester is fixed at the end of the semester
(positive or negative evaluation), the final
evaluation takes place during the exam
session (grade according to a ten-point
scale). When evaluating the results
achieved by the student, the cumulative
score system is applied, when the
intermediate subject assessments and the
exam are assigned weights that determine
the influence of those evaluations on the
final evaluation of the subject. Subject
assesmetns and their weights in the final
subject assessment are indicated separately
for each subject.
The most commonly used assement
methods are: exam, colloquium, paper,
presentations at seminars, laboratory work
description (report) and defense, oral
illustrated reports, etc.
