==Odpisovanie==
+
==Academic integrity==
  
Odpisovanie domácich úloh a opisovanie na skúškach je vážnym porušením akademickej integrity.
+
Cheating and plagiarism on homeworks and exams is a serious violation of academic integrity.  
  
Odpisovanie domácich úloh zahŕňa opísanie práce inej osoby (napr. od spolužiaka, z internetu, alebo z odbornej literatúry) a jej odovzdanie pod vlastným menom, umožnenie inej osobe opísať vlastné riešenia, ale aj spoluprácu pri riešení nad rámec povolený prednášajúcimi predmetu. Opisovanie na skúške zahŕňa použitie nepovolených pomôcok, ale aj nepovolenú komunikáciu s inými osobami počas skúšky.
+
On homeworks, you are '''not allowed''' to copy other person's work (eg from a classmate, from the Internet including AI chatbots, or from scientific literature) and submit it as your own. You are also not allowed to let another person to copy your solution. We allow and encourage discussion among students about individual homework tasks. However, the solutions you submit must be your own work written in your own words. To avoid unnecessary problems, do not take notes during group discussions about homework and wait at least three hours after such a discussion before writing the solution to be submitted.
  
V správe zo journal clubu musíte citovať všetku použitú literatúru. Zapíšte získané poznatky vlastnými slovami. Nekopírujte z literatúry a iných zdrojov celé vety (výnimkou môžu byť len krátke priame citáty s uvedením zdroja). Obrázky vytvorte vlastné alebo pri prevzatých obrázkoch uveďte zdroj, z ktorého pochádzajú.
+
During exams, do not use unauthorized aids and do not communicate with persons other than the instructors.
  
Pri zistení odpisovania budeme štandardne prideľovať známku -100% za príslušnú časť práce, s minimálnym znížením výslednej známky o jeden stupeň; v prípade opisovania na skúške automatická strata termínu a zníženie výslednej známky o dva stupne. Obzvlášť hrubé porušenia akademickej integrity budú postúpené na riešenie dekanovi fakulty.
+
In the report from the journal club, you must cite all used literature. Express the knowledge you have gained on the topic in your own words. Do not copy or mechanically translate entire sentences from the paper and other sources (except for short direct quotes indicating the source). Create your own images or specify the source of the downloaded images used in the report. Similarly for project reports.
  
U domácich úloh povoľujeme a podporujeme diskusiu medzi študentami o jednotlivých príkladoch. Riešenia ktoré odovzdáte, však musia byť vašou vlastnou prácou napísanou vašimi vlastnými slovami. Aby ste sa vyhli zbytočným problémom, nerobte si pri skupinových diskusiách o domácich úlohách poznámky a so spisovaním materiálu určeného na odovzdanie počkajte aspoň tri hodiny po takejto diskusii.
+
When cheating or plagiarism is detected, we will normally assign a grade of 0 for the relevant part of the work, with a minimum reduction of the final grade by one letter. Cheating on the exam will result in the FX grade for the exam. Particularly serious violations of academic integrity will be referred to the dean of the faculty.
