- Teaching methods
- During the studying the students can acquire the knowledge of the therapeutical use of medicinal plants at the lectures with the possibility to discuss the particular topics with the pharmacology teacher.
- Assessment methods
- The students have to prove the active knowledge of pharmacology of medicinal plants. They have to pass the final multiple-choice test to get the credit. They are asked to answer to multiple-choice questions (1 or more correct answers are possible to each question). The test contains 25 questions generated randomly for each single student. One point is granted for each correctly answered question. No point will be distracted for an incorrect answer to the multiple-choice question. The summary of the score obtained is evaluated. A criterion for receiving the credit is the summary score higher or equal to the 50% points of the maximum score obtained, i.e. a minimum of 13 completely correctly answered questions required.
