A course is the basic teaching unit, it's design as a medium for a student to acquire comprehensive knowledge and skills indispensable in the given field. A course guarantor is responsible for the factual content of the course.
For each course, there is a department responsible for the course organisation. A person responsible for timetabling for a given department sets a time schedule of teaching and for each class, s/he assigns an instructor and/or an examiner.
Expected time consumption of the course is expressed by a course attribute extent of teaching. For example, extent = 2 +2 indicates two teaching hours of lectures and two teaching hours of seminar (lab) per week.
At the end of each semester, the course instructor has to evaluate the extent to which a student has acquired the expected knowledge and skills. The type of this evaluation is indicated by the attribute completion. So, a course can be completed by just an assessment ('pouze zápočet'), by a graded assessment ('klasifikovaný zápočet'), or by just an examination ('pouze zkouška') or by an assessment and examination ('zápočet a zkouška') .
The difficulty of a given course is evaluated by the amount of ECTS credits.
The course is in session (cf. teaching is going on) during a semester. Each course is offered either in the winter ('zimní') or summer ('letní') semester of an academic year. Exceptionally, a course might be offered in both semesters.
The subject matter of a course is described in various texts.
BIE-KOM Conceptual Modelling Extent of teaching: 2P+2C Instructor: Pergl R. Completion: Z,ZK Department: 18102 Credits: 5 Semester: Z Annotation:
The course focuses on the development of abstract thinking skills and precise specifications in the form of conceptual models. Students will learn the ability to distinguish key concepts in the domain, categorize and also determine the right links in complex systems of social reality, especially enterprises and institutions. Students will learn the basics of ontological structural modeling in OntoUML notation. They will also learn to express the rules and limitations of everyday reality using the OCL language. Students will also learn the basics of Enterprise Engineering as a discipline enabling conceptual modeling of the structure of enterprises and institutions and their process and learn the DEMO methodology. The course is also designed with regard to the continuity of software implementations.
