4. Pedagogical approach • The course uses problem-based learning (PBL) with case study method, combining activating lectures, instead of traditional lectures, and group work with independent processing. This applies in such a way that the assignment is done with practical examples (real cases). Activating teaching is, in practice, the introductory lecture related to different thematic areas of assignment.
