Planned learning activities and teaching methods
The level of achievement of all planned learning outcomes is determined by the results of laboratory, independent, modular control works. The specific weight of learning results in the final assessment, provided that it is mastered at the appropriate level, is as follows: - semester assessment: 1. Modular control work 1: 5 points. 2. Modular control work 2: 5 points. 3. Modular control work 3: 5 points 4. Modular control work 4: 5 points 3. Laboratory works: – 30 points. 4. Independent work: – 10 points. - final assessment: in the form of an exam. Completion of all laboratory works and modular control works is mandatory for obtaining a positive final grade (60 points and above).
Assessment methods and criteria
Mandatory evaluation in oral / written, including test form. A student is not admitted to the exam if he scored less than 36 points during the semester. The credit score cannot be less than 24 points to receive an overall positive grade for the course.
