Oral exam, Written assignment, Test
The course ends with an oral examination. The examination consists of two parts. The first part includes questions from both methodology courses, i.e. PDA1 + PDA2. The students answer the questions in Czech or English (English is preferable). In the second part, the students are asked to explain chosen terms and comment on their practical teaching experience. - Class attendance (one absence is allowed for part-time) - Active class participation (includes extra assignments if given). - Active Moodle participation (additional resources are available on Moodle - to be checked and followed regularly). - Credit tests (midterm, final, min. 70% from each of the tests) - Ongoing project: Microteaching (recordings in Google Drive) + feedback to microteaching activities of other students (posted online via Google docs) BEWARE: An oral micro-presentation will be recorded on the English department video camera, and feedback will be given during and after the lessons via comments from the lecturer as well as classmates in Google Docs, the video (saved at Google Drive) will not be further used, and the recording will be deleted (unless agreed otherwise). - extra assignment (if given): Read a scholarly article on Moodle about the course topics, write/prepare a summary, and present it to the class in your microteaching. The content of the article will be discussed in the seminar session. Credit tests: - midterm (min 70%) - final (min 70 %) It is possible to lessen the number of tests due to the small number of contact lessons as agreed with the teachers.
