He accepts the framework of cooperation, depending on the situation, he is able to perform his work independently or as part of a team. Checks the reliability of test results obtained with the help of information technology tools.
Teaching methodology
The subject consists of two hours of theoretical and two hours of practical courses per week. The examples presented in the exercises help to understand the theoretical material presented in the lecture. During the presentation, the most important parts of the material are explained on the blackboard in order for the joint work to facilitate the students' understanding of the course material. The animations and examples shown in the theoretical courses further help the learning of the course material. Students can download the materials used in lectures and exercises. We provide regular consultations during the semester.

General rules
The learning outcomes are evaluated based on three mid-year written performance evaluations (two partial and one summative academic performance evaluation). The summative academic performance evaluation: a complex, written evaluation method of the subject and knowledge and ability-type competence elements in the form of a closed paper, the paper focuses on the application of the acquired knowledge, so it focuses on problem recognition and solution, i.e. practical (calculation) tasks must be solved, on the other hand, it asks for the necessary lexical knowledge during the performance evaluation. In addition, the closed thesis can also contain theoretical questions. Partial performance evaluation (homework): a complex evaluation method of the subject's knowledge, ability, attitude, independence and responsibility-type competency elements, which takes the form of individually prepared homework.
Assessment methods
Detailed description of mid-term assessments
Mid-term assessment No. 1 | ||
Type: | summative assessment | |
Number: | 1 | |
Purpose, description: | The summative assessment jointly examines and measures the learning outcomes of the students determined by knowledge and ability-type competencies. Accordingly, the summative evaluation measures the mastery of the designated theoretical knowledge material, as well as the existence of knowledge acquired in practice and the application of skills. The summative assessment focuses on theoretical knowledge and application skills. They will be completed at the time specified in the study performance evaluation plan. | |
Mid-term assessment No. 2 | ||
Type: | formative assessment, simple | |
Number: | 2 | |
Purpose, description: | The basic purpose of the partial performance evaluation is to examine the attitude and the existence of learning outcomes belonging to the competence group of autonomy and responsibility. The way to do this is to prepare two pieces of individually prepared homework documentation. The topic of the assignments is based on the parts of the material presented before the publication. The content and formal requirements and evaluation principles of the completed homework are clearly contained in the assignment description and the subject's website. |
Detailed description of assessments performed during the examination period
Elements of the exam:
Written partial exam | ||
Obligation: | mandatory (partial) exam unit, failing the unit results in fail (1) exam result | |
Description: | A complex, written evaluation method for the knowledge and ability-type competence elements of the subject in the form of a written closed paper; the thesis basically focuses on the interpretation of the individual concepts and the recognition of the connections between them, as well as the application of the acquired knowledge. The thesis contains both theoretical questions and practical tasks. The tasks typically involve solving several smaller tasks that belong to different parts of the material. | |
Oral partial exam | ||
Obligation: | (partial) exam unit chosen by the student, the exam result assessed by other partial exam unit can be changed unrestrictedly | |
Description: | During the oral exam, students are given the opportunity to improve their grade on the basis of their written exam. During the oral exam, the students draw two theoretical questions, which they are given 20 minutes to work on, after which they must present their answers orally. If you answer both questions satisfactorily, you will improve your written grade by one mark. If you only know the answer to one question satisfactorily, the grade will not be changed. If you do not know the satisfactory answer to any of the questions, your written grade will be reduced by 1 mark. It is important that only those who have at least a sufficient ticket based on the written one can take advantage of the oral option. |
