Podmínky zakončení předmětu

Given that we will be working remotely, the reading seminar will have the form below, and students will be evaluated on the basis of the following parameters:

 

(1) Each week a few questions on a specific text will be uploaded on Moodle, and students will be asked to answer them and send back to me by the next Tuesday evening.

(2) I will read the answers, correct them, then every Thursday we will have a short online discussion concerning them. I will assess your answers and any further questions/concerns about the text that you might have

 

In case you are interested in attending the English seminar, send me an email (this is just to make sure I know who might be taking part in it): [e-mail]

 

For what concerns our first class (next week on Thursday) I myself will email those who are registered on SIS to see who wants to participate and who does not want.
