Performance assessment methods
1. Részteljesítmény értékelés (1-2. ZH): a tantárgy és tudás, képesség típusú kompetenciaelemeinek komplex, írásos értékelési módja zárthelyi dolgozat formájában. A dolgozat alapvetően a megszerzett ismeretek alkalmazására fókuszál, így a helyzetfelismerés és önálló kritikai elemzést helyezi a középpontba, az értékelés alapjául szolgáló tananyagrészt és a rendelkezésre álló munkaidőt a tantárgy előadója határozza meg. 2. Részteljesítmény értékelés (órai gyakorlat): csoportos órai feladat előzetes felkészülést követően.
