Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria Teaching by research.
The knowledge assessment is based on completing four written group works, a literature review, an abstract of an article, and an individual presentation.
The working groups are composed of four students, and each group will have to do four group works - NTi and each student will have to present one group work, NApres. Each student will have to summarize a paper, NRes. The review groups comprise two students; each group will have to do a literature review, NRev.
The weighting coefficients for each assessment moment are as follows:
- group work, NTi - 0.15;
- group work presentation, NApres - 0.15;
- abstract of an article, NRes - 0.10.
- literature review, NRev - 0.15.
The knowledge assessment rating, NAP, is calculated as follows:
NAP = 0.15 (NT1+NT2+NT3+NT4) + 0.15 NApres + 0.10 NRes+ 0.15 NRev

The result of the knowledge assessment will be:
