The course will be taught in the form of e-learning. Each week you will get access to the lecture recorded on the video in Moodle. Besides the lecture, you will find in Moodle the homework assignment in the form of a short test of the material presented in the lecture. It may take a form of summary for the lecture, short test, or the short essay. To save your time, I strongly recommend doing the homework while you are watching the lecture as the homework will be related to the lecture. Besides the lectures and the homework, you will be supposed to read at least one of the chapters of the book each week (preferably more than one) so that at the end of the semester you finish reading all the required chapters and watching all the videos and have done all the homework. The first video lecture will inform you how to study for the course, which chapters and parts of the chapters you are responsible for and how the final exam will look like. The next videos will cover the material that is required for the exam. All the presentations are already available in SIS. In the presentations, you will find the links to the relevant video content on the internet. I will not include this content to the lectures on the videos, but highly recommend to watch it. In the case of necessity, you can use the discussion forum in Moodle to pose your question about the course. I will answer these questions ASAP. If this is not enough, you may ask for skype or google meet consultation via e-mail. Requirements to get the credits for the course Homeworks – 20% of the grade Final test - 80% of the grade
