Planned learning activities and teaching methods
Lections, student's independent work
Assessment methods and criteria
Oral surveys, written assignments, module tests. Forms of student assessment: semester assessment - grades for writing two module tests (maximum 30 points for each test); final grade - grade for oral test (maximum 40 points). Admission requirement: during the semester the student must score at least 36 points for writing two module tests. Organization of assessment: conducting module tests and oral tests. The final grade for the semester consists of the sum of points obtained by the student for two module tests and an oral test. One can get a maximum of 100 points. The students who scored a total of less than the critical minimum (60 points), for certification in this discipline, must rewrite two module tests and score at least 40 points and retake the oral test and get for it at least 20 points.
