- Assessment method
- Requirements: Regular preparation and attendance. (NB Years of experience show that regular attendance and academic achievement correlate positively.) Assessment: The lecture series concludes with a written examination based on the content of the lectures, the textbook (Tankó, Gy. (2012). Professional writing: The academic context (2nd ed.).
