Lectures, independent work, quizzes, tests

Knowledge control is carried out according to the ECTS system, which provides for a two-level assessment of the material learned, in particular, assessment of theoretical training - learning outcomes (knowledge 1.1 - 1.4), which is 40% of the total grade and assessment of practical training - learning outcomes (skills 2.1-2.5); (communication 3.1-3.3); (autonomy and responsibility 4.1-4.3), which is 60% of the total grade. For students who have scored less than the critical minimum of 30 points, in order to receive a passing grade, they must complete the missed independent work in writing and submit/email it to the lecturer. Thus, the final grade in the discipline (minimum 30, maximum 50 points) consists of the sum of the number of points for semester work (minimum 24, maximum 40 points) and the final test (minimum 6, maximum 10 points).
