Metody hodnocení
The course is concluded with a written examination in the form of multiple-choice questions. The total score for the written exam is 50 points.


During the seminar, students take two progress tests, each worth 30 points. These tests may include multiple-choice questions, short essays, or calculations. A minimum of 36 points in total from both tests is required. The points earned in these tests contribute to the final evaluation.


Students can earn up to 2 extra points per seminar based on their activity. To qualify, students must accumulate at least 10 points from seminar participation throughout the semester.


The maximum possible score for the course is 120 points. To successfully pass the course, students must achieve at least 60% (72 points).


Grading scale:
A: 92 - 100%
B: 84 - 91%
C: 76 - 83%
D: 68 - 75%
E: 60 - 67%
F: Less than 60%


All points earned during the semester are included in the final evaluation and can improve the final grade.


Academic Integrity:
If a student commits an academic offense—such as using prohibited materials (e.g., cheat sheets), copying, removing any part of the test, or any other form of cheating—the instructor has the right to interrupt the test and assign a grade of F, depending on the severity of the violation. This rule applies to all components of the course evaluation, including the semester paper.


Students Studying Abroad:
Students studying abroad must complete two intermediate tests and a final exam to pass the course. Their grade will be based on the total points earned from all three components. Alternatively, students may complete an equivalent course abroad and apply for its recognition. In such cases, students must contact the course guarantor before departure to agree on the necessary requirements.
