Assessment criteria
Classes in the semester end with an exam. The exam covers material taught during both semesters. The exam is in writing. In the 2020/21 academic year, due to the fact that the classes take place on the MS Teams and Moodle platforms, the credits (exam) will be held online on the Moodle platform. The exam will be in the form of a written work. The first part - obligatory for all students - is a test that checks the general orientation in the history of philosophy within the scope given in the class. Passing the test entitles you to the maximum grade - a "sufficient plus" For a higher grade, students will receive a set of exam theses in a timely manner, from which they will choose three theses, which they will develop in writing using the lectures and materials received on the Moodle platform. Students will send the work in the form of a file (Office) in response to a given task on the Moodle platform. Additionally - to increase the grade obtained from the examination paper - students will be able to send a paper on any (cross-sectional) topic from the material covered or selected reading. This topic should be agreed with the teacher.
