Assessment methods and criteria
Practical classes are held following the lectures on relevant topics. Assessment is carried out according to the types of work and the form of control. Students who scored a total of fewer points than the critical calculation min. - 48 are not allowed to take the test. For students who did not reach the min. cut-off grade (48 p.), a final semester test is conducted, and essays are assessed. The max. mark for additional tasks cannot exceed 40% of the final mark (up to 40 p. on a 100-point scale). The semester final grade is formed by the points gained in the process of performing the mentioned types and forms of tuition, and the points received for the test, the maximum distribution is carried out according to the following algorithm: 80 p. (80%) - term control and 20 p. (20%) - test). If the student scored fewer than 12 p. for the test (which is 60% of the 20 p. assigned to the test), they are not added to the term grade, regardless of the number of points received during the term.
