- Výukové metody
- The course is organized in 12 sessions. Classes have seminar format with a strong focus on class discussion and cooperative learning. We expect students to come to the classes. They are expected to participate in the class discussions and introduce the papers that they have read and also, their thoughts about them. If students miss classes not only will they not know the material, but they also deprive their classmates and lecturer of learning from them, and we lose the benefit of their contribution.
Students planning to study abroad through the Erasmus+ program should contact the course coordinator. They can 1) pursue a similar course at a foreign university or 2) consider enrolling in the course in the following year. - Metody hodnocení
