Proseminar in Physics II (FSI-0FR)

Academic year 2018/2019
Supervisor: doc. Ing. Radek Kalousek, Ph.D.  
Supervising institute: ÚFI all courses guaranted by this institute
Teaching language: Czech
Aims of the course unit:
Proseminar in physics II is drawn up to support students’ active approach their study content. Discussed topics are influenced especially by students. The main aim is to actively follow the commentary by means of the intensive collaboration between the teacher and the student.
Learning outcomes and competences:
Knowledge of definitions, laws and their validity conditions in the range of the syllabus. The emphasis is laid on the encouragement of abilities to solve physical and technical problems by virtue of general information obtained from the lecture General physics II.
Prerequisites:
Vector calculus. Integral and differential calculus. Newton’s laws. Conservative force field in mechanics.
Course contents:
Proseminar in physics II complements the lecture General physics II given within the frame of the speciality Physical engineering. Students taking this seminar can practise and acquire basic knowledge of electromagnetism in suitable form to be able to solve physical- and technical problems. These abilities are necessary to understand fundamentals of many technical branches.
Teaching methods and criteria:
The course is taught through exercises which are focused on practical topics presented in lectures.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes:
Proseminar in physics II is a graded course classified according to the grading scale A-F.
Controlled participation in lessons:
For passing out the Proseminar in Physics II the attendance at the courses is obligatory. In the case of excused absence an individual way of compensation can be arranged.
Type of course unit:
    Exercise  13 × 2 hrs. compulsory                  
Course curriculum:
    Exercise The syllabus of the course more or less corresponds with the lecture General physics II. The content of the Proseminar depends on momentary state of students’ knowledge and is continuously adapted to students’ needs.
