Výukové metody
Online lectures, online discussions, group projects, homework, research tasks. Because the course is online only, students are expected to do a lot of research, communicate in teams, and do independent work in MS Teams or other platforms which takes longer without direct supervision of the teacher. The assumed time corresponds to the course hourly dotation.
Metody hodnocení
handing in "deliverables" throughout the whole semester tracing the individual aspects of project design, planning, execution, closing, and reflection. Students must deliver complete documentation of the project, take part in the team presentation of the outcomes, and hand in the feedback and the final reflection. Upon successful completion of the course, you will earn 4 ECTS credits. Each ECTS credit represents 25 to 30 hours of work. In the seminars, full-time students are expected to spend 26 hours. The remaining 74 - 94 hours are allocated for self-study (approx. 6 hours a week).
Náhradní absolvování

The main tool for project management is MS Teams, but the links will also be available through the IS of the course. Some of the tasks will require the use of MS Teams, but for others, students can choose a platform of their choice under the condition that they hand in the documentation of the processes also through IS or Teams for the teacher's approval. In the course, the use of AI is permitted for learning but not for cheating. It is acceptable to use AI for brainstorming ideas, basic proofreading, suggestions for improvement. It is unacceptable to have a text generated, translated or reformulated. Remember to acknowledge all innovative ideas that are not yours. For generated ideas use in-text citations. At the end of each assignment, state how you worked/did not work with AI. When in doubt, consult your teacher.
