Understands and is able to apply basic assessment methods for different ways of solving problems
Knows the current legislation and legal norms governing professional activity

Learning outcome: applying knowledge and understanding

1 The student's ability to identify tasks and determine their significance within the framework of the set goal, as well as choose the best ways to solve them based on current legal norms, available resources and possible limitations

Learning outcome: formation of judgments

The knowledge gained from studying the fundamentals of subsurface use provides a scientific understanding of the provisions of mining legislation regulating and protecting mining and legal relations, protection of subsurface resources from the point of view of environmental law, regulation of relations in the field of subsurface use.

Learning outcome: communicative abilities

The ability to master the basic norms and methods of business interaction

Learning outcome: learning skills or learning abilities

To improve existing and introduce advanced research methods, mobility and susceptibility to the improvement of equipment and technology, the use of achievements of scientific and technological progress in the field of mining
Analyze the current legislation in the field of subsoil use and apply it in practice

Teaching methods

The teacher outlines in advance a list of questions that stimulate associative thinking and establish connections with previously mastered material.

The teacher's questions are aimed at activating the learning processes of the material, as well as at developing logical thinking.

The teacher outlines in advance a list of questions that stimulate associative thinking and establish connections with previously mastered material.

Assessment of the student's knowledge

Teacher oversees various tasks related to ongoing assessment and determines students' current performance twice during each academic period. Ratings 1 and 2 are formulated based on the outcomes of this ongoing assessment. The student's learning achievements are assessed using a 100-point scale, and the final grades P1 and P2 are calculated as the average of their ongoing performance evaluations. The teacher evaluates the student's work throughout the academic period in alignment with the assignment submission schedule for the discipline. The assessment system may incorporate a mix of written and oral, group and individual formats.

Type of task	Excellent	Good	Satisfactory	Unsatisfactory
Lecture classes	It is awarded if the student has disclosed the content of the material to the extent provided by the program, presented the material in a competent language in a certain logical sequence, accurately using the terminology of this subject as an academic discipline; answered independently without leading questions from the teacher; successfully answered test tasks, correctly and reasonably solved situational tasks. There may be one or two inaccuracies in the coverage of minor issues or in the calculations, which the student easily corrected according to the teacher's comment.	It is issued if the student's answer mainly meets the requirements for an "excellent" grade, but there is one of the drawbacks: one or two inaccuracies were made in the coverage of the main content of the answer, corrected by the teacher; an error or more than two inaccuracies were made in the coverage of secondary issues or in the calculations, easily corrected by the teacher.	Issued in the following cases: The content of the material is incompletely or inconsistently disclosed, there are errors in answering tests, inaccuracies in solving situational problems, but a general understanding of the question is shown and skills sufficient for further assimilation of the material determined by the discipline's curriculum are demonstrated.

There may be one or two inaccuracies in the coverage of minor issues or in the calculations, which the student easily corrected according to the teacher's comment.
Practical exercises	An excellent grade is given if the student actively works during the entire practical lesson, gives complete answers to the teacher's questions in accordance with the practical lesson plan and shows a deep mastery of the lecture material, knowledge of relevant literature, is able to express his own attitude to this problem, shows the ability to independently and reasonably present the material, analyze phenomena and facts, make independent generalizations and conclusions, correctly performs educational tasks, allowing no more than 1-2 arithmetic errors or descriptions.	The "good" rating is given subject to the following requirements: the student works actively during the practical lesson, the questions are fully covered, the presentation of the material is logical, grounded in facts, with links to relevant literary sources, the coverage of the issues is completed with conclusions, the student has demonstrated the ability to analyze facts and events, as well as perform training tasks. However, there are inaccuracies in the answers, some minor errors, insufficient argumentation in the presentation of the material, a clearly expressed student's attitude to facts and events, or 1-2 arithmetic and 1-2 logical errors in solving problems	A "satisfactory" grade is given when the student has generally mastered the essence of the questions on the topic, discovers knowledge of the lecture material and educational literature, tries to analyze facts and events, draw conclusions and solve problems. But in class, he behaves passively, responds only when called by the teacher, gives incomplete answers to questions, makes gross mistakes when covering practical material or 3-4 logical errors when solving special tasks.
