Assessment methods (in Czech)
3 hodiny klasických přednášek na hvězdárně + 1 hodina cvičení Předpokladem pro zkoušku je zápočet za aktivní účast na cvičení. V případě zájmu budou i konzultace. Při zkoušce si zkoušený vylosuje dvě otázky a má 60 minut na přípravu, během níž může používat libovolné pomůcky včetně vlastních poznámek a skript. Vlastní zkouška. jež trvá 30 minut, je individuální a poměrně náročná, jejím cílem je zjistit do jaké míry zkoušený učivu porozuměl.
