Teaching methods

The course is partly taught remotely.
It is possible to complete the course using the principle of a flipped classroom. During onsite lessons, we focus on tasks and their solutions.

Exam schedules

The exam date will be announced in the course's online workspace.

Pedagogic approaches and sustainable development

Flipped learning

Completion alternatives

Solving tasks independently remotely and returning them approved by the deadline.

Student workload

During the course about 50 statics examples and exercises is solved in contact hours.

Evaluation methods and criteria

Passing the course (grade 1) is possible by completing remote assignments. See the learning portal for more detailed instructions. Achieving better grades requires taking the exam.

Failed (0)

The total points of the exercises are not enough to pass. 40% of the points have not been achieved in the exam.

Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1-2)

The total points of the exam and assignments exceed 40%.

Assessment criteria, good (3-4)

The total points of the exam and assignments exceed 80%

Assessment criteria, excellent (5)
