1. Regular attendance (3 absences allowed) Not valid for students on study abroad, foreign internships or students with an individual study plan. 2. Active participation. Active participation does not only mean that the student is physically present in the seminar, but especially that he/she is continuously preparing for classes during home preparation. If a student is repeatedly unprepared in class, he/she may be dropped from the class. In this case, he/she will be given credit for the absence. During distance learning, active participation includes preparation for class, e.g. by handing in assignments and participating in the seminar. 3. Examination verifying knowledge of Morphosyntax I-III. The exam has two parts: a) a test verifying practical knowledge of Morfosyntax III. Passing the test is a condition for admission to the oral part; b) an oral examination verifying the theoretical knowledge of Morfosyntax I-III. Students may use the tutorial sessions to clarify any ambiguities in the material covered in lectures and seminars. Dates of credits and examinations will be announced in the examination period according to the JU Faculty of Arts timetable. Requirements for students participating in the Erasmus+ programme (teaching mobility or internship), for whom this course cannot be recognised as another course taken at a foreign university: 1) Self-study of the material discussed in class (possibility of pre-arranged consultations during cons. hours). 2) Completion of the exam after returning from the stay/internship (within the cut-off date set by the schedule for the AR).
