Teacher's information

Student se aktivně podílí na výuce a plní úkoly zadané vyučujícím. Rozsah učiva předmětu AJP_2 je 5.-8. lekce povinné literatury. Účast na výuce ve všech formách řeší samostatná vnitřní norma VŠTE (Evidence docházky studentů na VŠTE). Pro studenty prezenční formy studia je na kontaktní výuce, tj. vše kromě přednášek, povinná 70% účast. V případě nesplnění podmínek zápočtu v řádném termínu má student právo na jeden opravný termín, a to v případě, že test napsal alespoň na 30% (viz Studijní a zkušební řád VŠTE, článek 17, Zápočet). Tento termín vypisuje konkrétní vyučující předmětu nebo garant ve zkouškovém období téhož semestru. Uznání předmětu je možné pouze po předložení mezinárodního certifikátu min. na úrovni B1. Attendance in lessons is defined in a separate internal standard of ITB (Evidence of student attendance at ITB). Full-time students are obliged to attend 70 % of the lessons.
