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.
NI-APH Architecture of computer games Extent of teaching: 2P+1C Instructor: Vesecký A. Completion: Z,ZK Department: 18102 Credits: 4 Semester: Z Annotation:
Students will gain a basic understanding of the various issues in the field of computer games development, especially from a technical point of view, but also from design and philosophical perspective. They will get a grasp of component-oriented and functional-oriented architecture, game mechanics, decision-making processes and base components that form an integral part of most games. They will also understand the basics of pathfinding, networking and scripting and apply them in practical exercises (labs). An important part of the course is an implementation of a simple game, with a strong focus on nontrivial game mechanics.
