- Approaches, practices, and methods used in teaching
- Lectures with a presentation of examples and real situations, case studies.
- Method of verifying learning outcomes and course completion requirements
- Student has to work out one POT (work amended by tutor) in the semester. Presentation of POT is obligatory and it is a necessary condition to approach the exam. Exam will proceed within actual examination period. With respect to the scope of the course, the student has to choose one of the topics as a POT setting, present it and hand it in. Any copying, keeping a record of tests or carrying the tests out, using forbidden aids including any communication devices or any other breach of objectivity of the exam is regarded as a failure to meet the obligations of the subject and as a serious breach of study regulations. As a consequence, the teacher grades the student with "F" and the dean is allowed to initiate a disciplinary action, which might lead to the termination of the studies.
