Aims, contents and method of the course
Assessment and permitted materials
Generally, the students are assessed by means of a written examination with multiple choice and single choice questions, as well as open questions about definitions, connections and examples. During on-site-examinations, no auxiliary materials are allowed.
If the examination is carried out online, it will consist of essay questions about two to three topics. Students are allowed to use auxiliary materials while writing these essays.
Examination dates:
1st date: end of the semester
2nd date: beginning of the following semester
3rd date: end of the following semester
4th date: four months after the third date
It shall be pointed out to the students that, if their positive grade had evidently been obtained by fraud (e. g. copying, plagiarism, use of unauthorized auxiliary materials, forgery, ghostwriting, etc.), the entire course will be classified as cheated and the attempt to take the examination will be counted (entry in U:SPACE: X = not assessed).
