Výukové metody
Lectures. Seminars incorporate group work, individual projects, discussions, and presentations of homework. An interactive syllabus with study materials is available to students to prepare individually for the classes.
Metody hodnocení
• Students work on individual portfolio assignment, which they submit electronically following APA7 standards to the assignment repository in the course materials on the learning management system IS.MUNI. If necessary, students may make one correction to their assignment submission. Late submissions are considered as a makeup opportunity.
• Active participation in classes is necessary for course completion, including preparation for classes, completion of ongoing assignments, pre-reading for class sessions, and active engagement in discussions and activities.
• Successful completion of the course requires passing a knowledge test held at the end of the semester. Students may take the test even if they have not yet submitted the portfolio assignment.
• The subject is for 4 ECTS credits, which corresponds to 100-120 hours of work according to the MUNI study regulations. Of these, 6 hours are allocated to seminars/lectures, and the remaining hours are reserved for preparation for teaching, individual study, completion of portfolio tasks, and test preparation.
Náhradní absolvování
Students going from Czechia on an INTERNSHIP abroad complete a portfolio task and take a test. The subject can be completed during the semester, in the following semester, or through a similar course abroad.
