Teaching methods
Interactive seminars in both types of study (full-time students and part-time study programme students). The explanation of theoretical concepts used in presenting will be immediately followed by practical exercises - individual work, work in pairs, group work. Special focus will be given to the evaluation of students' progress. Multimedia resources (audio sequences and video sequences) will be implemented into the programme of each seminar.
Assessment methods
Assessment 1. Obligatory active participation in interactive seminars: 75% full-time students; 50 % part-time students. 2. Apart from the obligatory active participation in the seminars, the students will be asked to prepare an individual or group presentation and present it before their peers which will be a precondition for gaining the CREDITS. 3. Additional study obligations: in case the student has the seminar attendance between 40-70 % (full time students), or, as the case may be, between 4-6 lessons (part-time study programme students), he/she will be evaluated „-“ and automatically loses one attempt necessary for successful completion of the subject. In order to get the CREDITS = Z, the student will be asked to prepare his/her presentation, incorporating in it the specified presenting skills and techniques studied in the particular term. The seminar attendance less than 40 % means that the student didn't meet additional study obligations and he/she will be assessed as "Failed" = NNN.
