The formulated learning outcomes are evaluated on the basis of two summative assessments (a mid-term exam and a case game with task solutions) and a formative assessment (independent task).

Detailed description of performance evaluations during the study period: 1. Summative assessments: a complex, written evaluation of the content of the subject in the context of a mid-term exam and case study. The purpose of the case game is to check the way of using the acquired knowledge and the existence of competences. 2. Independent task: a complex evaluation method of the knowledge, ability, attitude, independence and responsibility elements of the subject, to show how the student acquired the knowledge, whether he has the skills and ability to solve the task independently, whether he was able to use the knowledge apply and evaluate creatively. The content of the independent task is determined by the instructor after discussion with the student. The content framework and submission method/deadline of the independent assignment is determined by the instructor.

• 1st summative assessment: 30
• 2nd summative assessment: 30
• formative assessment (independent task): 40
• total: 100
