Social Sciences - Education / Pedagogy / svjedodžba (klasične gimnazije)
Croatian term or phrase: izborni predmet
U svjedodžbi imam i 'izborni' i 'fakultativni' predmet. Radi se o tome da je izborni predmet zapravo obavezan, jedino što učenik može izabrati jedan od ponuđenih predmeta (kod nas bira između vjeronauka i etike), a fakultativni predmet je potpuno neobavezan i učenik može odlučiti želi li ili ne imati neki fakultativni predmet (poput dodatnog stranog jezika i sl.)
Znam da je izraz na engleskom 'optional', ali kako razlikovati ove dvije kategorije?
Hvala.

rekla bih da je to, na osnovu opisa.

compulsory subject ( redovan obavezan predmet)
optional subject ( izborni, neobavezan predmet- fakultativni)
selective obligatory subject ( izborni, obavezan predmet)


Naći ćete date kategorije u ove dvije reference
