| Assessment | |||||||||
| Unaided Work: | Systematic search, selection and critical reading of the latest scientific publications. Gathering scientific evidence and transferring it in the context of a specific task. Development of project work in small groups, between the report and preparation of the final report. | ||||||||
| Assessment Criteria: | Participation in discussions in classes and seminars (formulation and explanation of a reasoned opinion, creative approach to solving problems, asking questions that promote understanding and thinking). The final exam is organized as a project work development and report, providing a cumulative grade consisting of the three interim reports (20%, 20%, 20%), participation in discussions and seminars (10%), the assessment of the final report (30%). Evaluation criteria (for interim reports and final report), each criterion is graded 0 to 10 and represents 20% of the total grade of the interim report or final report: (1) completeness of the content and compliance with the defined requirements; (2) description of the scientific evidence and completeness of theoretical research; (3) creative approach and solutions; (4) compliance of the design with the requirements; (5) oral-visual presentation and discussion (attractiveness, clear and logical presentation, ability to argue, ability to explain). The requirements of each interim report have been updated and placed in e-studies on the specific topic. | ||||||||
