The discipline consists of two thematic modules, each of which is concluded with a thematic control assignment and includes a final assessment in the form of a credit. The results of students' academic activities are assessed on a 100-point scale (the grade is calculated as accumulated). Throughout the course, continuous assessment of students' performance on seminar tasks and independent work is conducted. Continuous assessment is carried out during seminar sessions and aims to evaluate the level of knowledge acquisition and the student's preparedness to independently complete individual tasks related to the discipline.
