General criteria: Correctness and clarity of the presented solutions, ability to solve related problems independently;
Concrete evaluation: blackboard examples.
Methods
The students have to work out problems and to prepare blackboard presentations (or computer presentations) of the solutions found (using, e.g., computer algebra software). Discussion about the quality and their possible improvements.
Language
English
Study material

No
Further information
The students are trained to apply the tools and concepts, introduced in the lecture, in practical problem solving: analysis of algorithms, etc. In particular, the usage of computer algebra software is encouraged.
