In addition, the reading list will be distributed. It is crucial for the success of the seminar that all participants start reading the required texts in good time before the seminar (approx. 10 demanding texts). The seminar will take place on four consecutive days from September 10-13 from 9 am to 4 pm. As part of the seminar, all students will make a short 15-minute presentation (individually or in a small group). The lecturer will also provide input, facilitate the discussions and guide creative formats. There will also be small group work on the texts guided by questions. On the last day of the seminar, students will present the research questions for the term paper and receive feedback. |
