Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Teaching methods depend on the type of course unit as specified in the article 7 of BUT Rules for Studies and Examinations. Students also have a presentations for lectures, schedule of exercises and examples develop assignments and tests.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

Attendance at seminars is compulsory (2 outs can apologize instructor). They write the three written tests - the sum of points of all tests must be at least 50% of the total achievable points from all tests. Not-flown test will be replaced by the agreed date. That exercise must be drawn up and entered all eligible programs. The test is to test, numerical and oral. 30% of the points are generated from the evaluation exercise. The total number of points is 100, for the successful completion of the
