The assessment of the learning outcomes set out in 2.2 is based on a partial assessment (topic paper) and a summative assessment (oral and written assessment).

A detailed description of the performance assessments during the semester: 1. Competency assessment (theme draft): a prerequisite for the summative assessment of academic performance, which is a simple way of assessing the knowledge, skills, attitudes and competencies of the subject, such as autonomy and responsibility. 2. summative assessment of academic performance: a complex way of assessing the competences of subject knowledge, skills, attitudes, autonomy and responsibility, which is linked to the individual and group solution of a task closely related to the student's topic outline. The subject supervisor determines the content, requirements and deadline for submission. During the performance assessment, the student will report on their performance orally and in writing on the course content.

• Összegző tanulmányi teljesítményértékelés: 100

Az aláírás megszerzésének a feltétele a sikeres (megfelelt minősítésű) részteljesítmény értékelés (témavázlat).

1) A témavázlat késedelmesen a pótlási időszak utolsó napján 23:59-ig adható be elektronikus formában (Moodle felület). 2) A beadott és elfogadott témavázlat az 1) pontban megadott határidőig és módon, 5 pont levonás mellett, javítható. 3) Az összegző tanulmányi teljesítményértékelés a pótlási időszakban díjmentesen pótolható vagy javítható. Javítás esetén a korábbi és az új eredmény közül az utóbbi kerül figyelembe vételbe. 4) Amennyiben a 3) pont szerinti pótlással sem tud a hallgató elégtelentől különböző érdemjegyet szerezni, úgy második alkalommal ismételt kísérletet tehet a sikertelen első pótlás javítására.

Consulted with the Faculty Student Representative Committee, approved by the Vice Dean for Education, valid from: 03.06.2024.

In order to achieve the learning outcomes outlined in section 2.2, the subject consists of thematic blocks of concepts and research methodologies to enhance user experience (UX) and product experience (PX).
