Teaching methods
4 compulsory assigniments - 3 must be approved.
Lectures, self-study, task solving, group work, work on digital tools.
Lectures will be recorded and there will be a sample of prerecorded lectures and practical tasks which covers central parts of the subject. Instructions are carried out both synchronous and asynchronous by using Collaborate and forum. A plan for this is available in learning platform. There will be two gatherings. Consumption of time:
- Lectures: 50 hours - Organized instructions: 15 hours - Compulsory work: 80 hours - Own efforts: 120 hours - Sum: 265 hours.
