Lectures, oral and written communication, use of IT devices and techniques, optional practice problems solved individually and in teams (home practice).

The evaluation of learning outcomes described in Section 2.2. is based on two mid-term exams. The dates of the mid-term exams can be found in the "Detailed semester schedule" on the website of the subject.
A mid-term exam is successful if the scores reach or exceed 50%.

Evaluation form	Abbreviation	Assessed learning outcomes
1st mid-term exam	MT1	A.1-A.7
2nd mid-term exam	MT2	A.8; B.1-B.4; C.1-C.2; D.1-D.2

A szorgalmi időszakban tartott értékelések pontos idejét, a házi feladatok ki- és beadási határidejét a "Részletes féléves ütemterv" tartalmazza, mely elérhető a tárgy honlapján.

To obtain a signature, all of the following requirements must be fulfilled:

• comply with the requirements on attendance, and
• both mid-term exams have to be successful.

In the case of complying with the requirements on attendance, the results are determined as follows.
In the case of both mid-term exams being successful, the final result is computed by the weighted average points (P) of the two mid-term exams:

Grade	Points (P)
excellent (5)	80%≤P
good (4)	70%≤P<80%
satisfactory (3)	60%≤P<70%
passed (2)	50%≤P<60%
failed (1)	P<50%

Both mid-term tests can once be retaken during the education period or during the repetition week. If one of the mid-term exams remains unsuccessful after the retake, one further retake can be done during the examination period. This option does not exist if both midterm exams remain unsuccessful by the end of the repetition week.
