|METHODS OF TEACHING |
|The instruction of the discipline is aimed at achieving two major goals: to explain in a thorough and integrated, though comprehensible,|
|manner the theory of information system’s accounting, and to help students acquire the skills of use of accounting information systems |
|that they will need in their practice. To this effect the separate topics in the course of lectures are illustrated by cases that are |
|aimed at encouraging reasoning and the effective application of the acquired knowledge. The seminars envisage doing case studies and |
|tests. |
|In the 2012/2013 academic year ongoing assessment was introduced. The term exam includes solving case studies. Each case study brings a |
|number of points, which are specified in the concrete variant of the exam. Students are required to arrive at the solution of the case |
|study. The grade is based on the percentage of true answers within the overall number of points established along a scale. |
|Students are tasked with solving problems in the form of individual assignments. The solutions to the problems (answer keys) for |
|personal assignments are provided in textbooks and are checked during seminars. |

|The term test includes the solution of case studies. Each case study brings a number of points, which are specified in the concrete |
|variant of the exam. Students are required to arrive at the solution of the case study. The grade is based on the percentage of true |
|answers within the overall number of points established along a scale as follows: |
|80 % - 100 % - excellent |
|70% - 79 % - very good |
|60% - 69 % - good |
|50% - 59% - fair |
|49 % - poor |
|The formula along which the final grade is formed is the following: |
|FG = 0,50 TE/T + 0,50 T |
|Where |
|FG = final grade |
|TE = term exam |
|T = tests (2 in number) |
|The final grade is formed along a six-point scale, and the minimal grade for the successful passing of the course if Fair 3. It follows |
|a full compliance with the European Credit Transfer System. |
