assessmentMethod hu
Learning requirements, mode of evaluation, criteria of evaluation: requirements The theoretical section is finished with an in-class test. The subject of the test is the course material and literature items given below The practical section is evaluated by the student’s attitude of active presence, continuous processing of the required literature belonging to the subject, designing a counselling group with its plan delivered, demonstrating the plan in a simulated or a real situation, and making a self-reflective evaluation. mode of evaluation: ………….  The in-class test after the theoretical section is evaluated on a 5-point grading scale (insufficient - excellent). In case of insufficient result, the student needs to repeat the exam after the course.  If the theoretical part is evaluated as insufficient, the course is not fulfilled, regardless of the result of the practical section. To accomplish the course, a group plan in written form should be delivered until a deadline during the practical section, then, the written self-reflective evaluation should also be handed in. All of these assignments are evaluated on a 5-point grading scale. In case of insufficient mark, the course is not accomplished. The final evaluation of the course is the mean of the marks above.  In case of uncertain mark, course instructor may give the student the better one if an extra assignment is handed in. criteria of evaluation: During the theoretical part, an integrating knowledge must be used, based on the literature items given. During the practical part, the group plan delivered must follow the professional concepts, aspects and theoretical models learned in the course. Reflecting on competences and skills plays important role in the assessment.
