Requirements to complete the course

Exam 60% of the rating. It is performed in the form of a test using a test application. The test verifies the achieved level of educational results A., C., F., G.
Exercises 40%. The content of the exercise is the elaboration and defense of the semester work, which students will work out in groups. Each group has its own group leader, who is chosen by the students. The semester work of the group is evaluated as a whole for the whole group, while the evaluation of the members of the group and their contribution to the elaboration of the semester work is the result of the group agreement. The following educational results are evaluated by the evaluation of the semester work: B., C., D., E., F., G., H., I.
