- Teaching methods
- lectures, discussions, seminar papers, literature studies, practical exercises
- Assessment methods
- 1. term paper analyzing a specific communication event in a company,
2. a presentation/practical exercise (based on the seminar paper),
3. (active participation in seminars and exercises),
4. oral examination to demonstrate the knowledge and skills acquired.
Any copying, recording, or taking out tests, use of unauthorized aids and communication devices, or any other interference with the objectivity of the examination (credit) will be considered a failure to meet the course requirements and a gross violation of the study regulations. As a result, the instructor will close the exam (credit) with a grade of "F" in the IS, and the dean will initiate disciplinary proceedings that may result in the termination of the course
Suppose the student enrolls in the course during their trip abroad. In that case, the same conditions apply, i.e., the student must write a seminar paper on the chosen topic and then take an oral examination where they will also present the seminar paper. It is recommended to contact the teacher at the beginning of the semester to agree on the topic of the thesis, study materials, and the course of completion. - Language of instruction
