The oral presentation of the teacher contains pictures and schemes to demonstrate the pharmacological principles and help the understanding of the related topic.
- Assessment methods
- During the study, the students have to prove active knowledge of pharmacology acquired. The students have to pass colloquium on topics studied during the semester: final written multiple-choice test. In the test, students are asked to answers multiple-choice questions. Only 1 correct answer is possible for each question. The test contains 20 questions evaluated with 20 points. To pass the test student needs to get at least 60% out of the maximum score.
