| Assessment | |||||||||
| Unaided Work: | Special literature search and use, theoretical material analysis, independent slide analysis, scheme analysis. In order to evaluate the quality of the study course as a whole, the student must fill out the study course evaluation questionnaire on the Student Portal. | ||||||||
| Assessment Criteria: | Evaluation is based on these criteria: activity during the practical classes and level of attendance, course material study with the help of slide analysis, literature reading, using books, and e-sources. The final evaluation is a written exam (100%). End-of-course written examination testing students’ theoretical knowledge of tissue and organ morphology and practical skills in analysing specimens and/or schematic images. | ||||||||
| Final Examination (Full-Time): | Exam (Written) | ||||||||
| Final Examination (Part-Time): | |||||||||
| Learning Outcomes | |||||||||
| Knowledge: | Student gains knowledge on essential facts of tissue development, functional morphology of basic tissue groups and systems, explains and justifies principles of regulation of tissue functions, aging and adaptation reactions. | ||||||||
| Skills: | On successful course completion student is able to analyse basic tissue groups and organism systems, their functional morphology, human development basis. | ||||||||
| Competencies: | Student determines slide quality, tissue and tissue structure relationship and proportions, interprets histology slides. | ||||||||
