Assessment methods and criteria
Every day, each student-intern receives an individual task from the direct supervisor, which determines the place, nature and scope of the work. The intern student bears personal responsibility for the timely and high-quality performance of an individual task. Each individual task is evaluated by the head of the practice, the sum of the individual task evaluations is the evaluation for the current control. Based on the results of the internship, the student-intern prepares a report on the internship. The head of the practice evaluates the quality, completeness and design of the report. During the defense of the report, the student receives 4 credit questions related to the direct content of the report. Each question is worth 5 points. The student who gave a full answer to these questions adds to his asset the amount of points received, which is added to the points scored by the student based on the results of the current control.
