NAČIN RADA:
Gradivo se predaje u cjelinama koje obrađuju ključne teme s područja psiholingvistike. Nakon većine cjelina studenti rješavaju vježbe koje provjeravaju s nastavnikom na satu. Od studenata se očekuje da pročitaju relevantna poglavlja i dijelove iz obavezne literature te im se savjetuje da pročitaju određene dijelove iz dodatne literature, što im pomaže u stjecanju znanja o području rada.
STUDENTSKE OBAVEZE I PROVJERA ZNANJA:
Studentima se preporučuje redovit dolazak na kolegij i aktivno sudjelovanje u nastavi. Sredinom semestra ponavlja se dotad obrađeno gradivo, a u zadnjem tjednu semestra ponavlja se cjelokupno gradivo te se studenti pripremaju za ispit. Studenti su dužni tijekom semestra riješiti i predati jedan zadatak koji je uvjet za dobivanje potpisa o odslušanom kolegiju. Na kraju studenti polažu pismeni ispit.
