The course “Praktikum ze všeobecné geologie II“ (General geology – labs II) is closely linked to the subject “Všeobecná geologie II” (General geology II). The course provides students with overview of the theory of exogenous processes that overlaps or supplements the General geology II. Through practical exercises, the course emphasizes basic practical tasks, e.g., interpretation of geological process and resulting landforms. A goal of the practical exercises is to make students familiar with basic aspects of exogenous geological processes. Fullfilling of this course is necessary to succeed at more advanced courses such as sedimentology, geomorphology, historical geology and stratigraphy, paleoecology, etc.).

Credits are awarded on following grounds: 1. Attendance on lessons. Absence has to be excused in advance or on the day of the lesson (e.g., by e-mail). Excuses presented later will not be considered. 2. Evaluation of student's independent endeavor. Student has to fulfill in total 10 protocols with practical exercises. All exercises have to be properly fulfilled. In case the protocols are incomplete or contains significant errors, student will be awarded less points to his final score. Corrections to protocols are not expected - protocols will be evaluated on a one-time basis! Protocols have to be handed over to lecturer upon following lecture. Failing to do so means failing the course. 3. Evaluation of an essay on a topic related to the exogenous geology. Topics will be assigned to students at the beginning of the summer semester and the finalized essays will have to be submitted until indicated deadline. Failing to do so means failing the course. 4. Results of final exam. Each of the exams comprise 12 quiz questions focused on theory as well as practical examples. 10 questions are for 3 points, 2 for 5 points; thus, the maximum score from single exam is 40 points. The exam will be held during the exam period (at least 3 times). Final grade consist of fulfilled protocols (40 %; i.e., 50 points in total; max. gain per protocol is 4 points), essay (20 %) and final exam (40 %). To be awarded credits, student has to gain at least 70 % of final grade by sum of fulfilled protocols and exam results result. Thus, it´s not possible to succeed with only fulfilled protocols and essay (and failed exams) or only with full point gain from exams (and 0 points from protocols and essay). Example of awarding a final grade: protocols 30 point, sessay 15 points, final exam 35 points = 80 points (80 %) = passed. Last update: Nádaskay Roland, Mgr., Ph.D. (26.10.2022)
