| Requirements for awarding credit points | |
| Successfully write 2 tests and present to the audience the topic assigned by the teacher in relation to the finishing and finishing process. Presentation is evaluated both from the saturated side and from the ability to speak. At the end of the semester, an Exam is passed for everything acquired during the semester, promoting the coherence of knowledge. | |
| Description of the organization and tasks of students’ independent work | |
| The student independently researches one of the assigned finishing problems, solves it until the conclusion is reflected in front of the audience, developing not only professional issues but also techniques for a successful presentation of information. (24h)
Prepares for the first test, searching for and analyzing the control questions issued by the teacher. (8h) Prepares for the second test, searching for and analyzing the control questions issued by the teacher. (8h) Prepares for the exam by searching for and analyzing the control questions issued by the teacher. (8h) |
