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.
The use of artificial intelligence is permitted, but must be disclosed in the feedback on the exercises.
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.
