Assessment methods
The course has a form of lectures. The lectures (6 hours) are divided into two parts. Reading, class discussion. Condition for completion is that student has to write a credit test with average rating of 60% or more. This test will be written during the exam period. Any copying, recording or leaking tests, use of unauthorized tools, aids and communication devices, or other disruptions of objectivity of exams (credit tests) will be considered non-compliance with the conditions for course completion as well as a severe violation of the study rules. Consequently, the teacher will finish the exam (credit test) by awarding grade "F" in the Information System, and the Dean will initiate disciplinary proceedings that may result in study termination.
