Student’s independent learning includes:
1. Regular learning of study course content using lecture materials, study readings and internet resources.
2. Doing homework.
3. Development of a course paper.
4. Preparing for test work and examination.
During studies, students, using lecture materials and various other sources of information, perform independent work and present at seminars on: Practical application of ICT tools in the study process, analysis of ICT tools, integration of ICT tools into opportunities in an educational institution, choice and selection of related study methods for developing critical thinking and decision-making skills in the field of sports pedagogy, working with ICT tools and education technologies. Within the framework of the final project of the course, students develop a specific study content using a range of ICT tools learned. The final examination consists of a theoretical and practical examination.
