The current methods of quality assurance:
A tárggyal kapcsolatban évenként oktatói felülvizsgálat történik, melynek során figyelembe vesszük a tudásátadás
hatékonyságát, illetve a hallgatói és a végzettek által adott vélemények kiértékeléséből származó információkat. Az értékelés
alapján a tárggyal kapcsolatos fejlesztési akciók indíthatók, melynek területei
- a tudásátadás módszertana,
- a tananyag tartalma,
- az előadások és gyakorlatok egymásra épültsége.
A változtatásokról és azok eredményeiről évenkénti értékelést végzünk, erről feljegyzést készítünk és a bevált elemeket a
szakfelelős által szervezett ütemezéssel a tantárgyi program részévé tesszük.
