MPE_ACMA Seminar in macroeconomics

Changes in course contents and subject matter for credit

Due to the complications that arose in connection with the coronavirus pandemic, the termination of contact instruction, and related matters, we decided to adjust the course contents and the subject matter for the semester as follows:
For this semester, we exclude from the content of the course and from the subject matter for credit:
- Monetary and fiscal policy (12th week)
- Consumption (13th week)
- Unemployment (13th week)
This saved capacity will be used to focus on the core substance. (We will inform you about the specific form later).

We believe that this measure will make it possible to better focus on the core substance of Macroeconomics 2 and avoid potential overloading of students in this difficult time.

What does it mean for the conditions for getting the credit?

- For "seminar work", you will not have the task of solving leaflet exercises on excluded content
- Test 2 will not contain the "Monetary and fiscal policy" (as opposed to the original plan).

Will the credit conditions change?

The above change in the subject matter for credit concerns two parts of the assessment:
Work on exercises
The evaluation of the seminar in the 12th and 13th week will be given by the average evaluation of all previous scoring weeks. For example, if a student scored an average of 3.6 points from the previous scoring weeks, the 12th and the 13th week will automatically score 3.6 points.
Tests
The first test is unchanged in its subject matter (topics from week 2-5). The point value is unchanged at 30 points.
The second test will not contain the substance "Monetary and Fiscal Policy" (as opposed to the original plan). The point value is unchanged at 30 points.
