| Form description |
|---|
Experiential learning (is a form of active learning, which allows reaching conclusions and theories through experiencing real-life situations similar to professional lives, and through their subsequent analysis).
Students must be prepared for active participation during the tutorials as well as during the team-work, and also be prepared to take the responsibility for their own learning. This means that the learning form experienced is not traditional lecturing and test evaluation, but new knowledge is constructed in collaboration with other students and therefore assessed formatively, requiring everyone’s contribution to learning activities.
