Students are expected to attend class regularly and to participate actively, which includes reading assigned texts to prepare for each session, and handing in a number of small writing assignments during the course of the semester. The topic of the “Hausarbeit” (requirements to be found in the style sheet) can either be taken from this course or from the “Proseminar”, the second constituent of the “Basismodul”. The paper is to be handed in after successful completion of both module constituents (“Grundkurs & Proseminar”).
Course structure:
Seminars, group work, hands-on activities, presentations plus feedback, lectures and discussions.
