- Assessment methods
- The course will have the form of lectures, the attendance to which is not obligatory, but we can strongly recommend it. The lecturers postulate the right to give the students informations about the course only during the lectures, thus it is not necessary to send all the students an email afterwards. Each student will work out a seminary paper of 10-15 pages length, which will be classified by 0 - 20 points. Each student will choose his/her issue for the seminary work till 11th March. If he or she doesn't choose his/her issue till this term, he/she will not be classified in this course. The seminary paper will be worked out and handed in the Information system till 29th April, 23:59, otherwise the student is not classified. It is not possible to make a seminary paper anew. The areas classified on this paper will be originality, resource relevance and richness (we strongly recommend not to use internet encyclopedies without any responsible editor etc.), the quality of the issue, paper structury, stylistics and orthography and the quality of the outcome. Formal quality of the paper is also an important aspect; the paper without proper annotation will not be accepted. The classification of seminary paper is an integral part of overall classification of the student! The written test will consist of 10 questions, each by 4 points maximum, so the overall maximum is 40 points. The overall classification will be like this: Maximum - 60 points. A - 60-56 B - 55-51 C - 50-46 D - 45-41 E - 40-36 F - 35 and less.
