Teaching methods

The course is taught during the tutorials partially as lectures, partially as consultations. Each student elaborates an essay called “POT”. Details can be found in the interactive syllabi here: https://is.muni.cz/auth/el/1456/podzim2015/MKH_MAN2/index.qwarp.

Assessment methods

Students have to pass an oral examination to successfully conclude the course. Students can only take the exam after submitting the essay called “POT”. The exam consists of a defence of the essay and of answering one question.
Any copying, keeping a record of tests or carrying the tests out, using forbidden aids including any communication devices or any other breach of objectivity of the exam is regarded as a failure to meet the obligations of the subject and as a serious breach of study regulations. As a consequence, the teacher grades the student with "F" and the dean is allowed to initiate a disciplinary action, which might lead to the termination of the studies.
