Materials

Electronic material as well as web material published on the course's Learn platform. Exercises and their model answers are also given to students on the course's Learn platform and / or Teams channel.

Teaching methods

Participation in contact and / or remote learning according to the work schedule. The student completes the assignments, tasks and project work required in the course before the given deadlines and participates in exams or in the final exam at the end of the course if it will be arranged.

Employer connections

The course does not have RDI or work-life cooperation, since it is a training course for studying mathematics in the university.

Exam schedules

Exercises and assignments will be returned to the Learn platform by the deadline specified there. Possible exam schedule will be agreed upon together with the students.

Student workload

A total of 81h, of which about 54hrs is contact learning and 27hrs is independent work.

Evaluation scale

1-5

Assessment methods and criteria

Participation in contact learning, completing course assignments, exams or final exam.
