Assessment methods and criteria: Assessment of knowledge is provided by current and examination controls. Current control: - preparation and implementation of practical classes. Current monitoring of practical classes is carried out in order to identify the student's readiness for classes in the following forms: • a selective oral survey before the start of classes; • evaluation of the student's activity in the course of classes, submitted proposals, original solutions, clarifications and definitions, additions to previous answers, etc. Examination control is carried out in the form of a written and oral survey and/or test control. The final control is carried out based on the results of the current control and semester examination control.
Критерії оцінювання результатів навчання: Current control (PC) - 20 points Examination control (EC) – 80 points - written component - 70 points; - oral component - 10 points
