Poslední úprava: VYKOUKAL (03.09.2012)
The main aim of this course is to evaluate the economic and social situation of peasants in various countries as of 1912. Each student will be expected to deliver a paper on the peasantry of the country/region or possibly even the village of his/her origin (with topics to be discussed with the instructor). The demanded knowledge of working sources, although focused on Eastern Europe is supposed to provide this workshop’s participant with ideas, parallels and comparisons with his/her own country’s peasantry.
At the same time, each student is supposed to do an in-class oral presentation of some of the assigned studies and to answer questions raised by other students. The ensuing discussion will concern (In fact and/or method) both the assigned sources on the peasantry of the referring student’s home country, as well as his/her paper. Participation of other students in the discussion will be appreciated.
Students are required to consult the instructor on the topic of their presentation, After the in-class presentation, students are to turn in their presentation in writing, drawing on comments raised during class discussion. The papers in the form of report are to be sent to the instructor. The written presentations should be approximately two to three pages long
The final paper should be eight to ten pages long. It is important that the final paper chooses a regional focus different from that of the in-class presentation. The paper must include proper references, contain a list of sources used and conform to academic writing standards. The papers are to be delivered to the respective instructor by Jun 15, 2012. Students are required to discuss their final papers topics with the respective instructor. Assignments for the final paper are to be agreed upon with the respective instructor by Apr 1, 2012.
Attendance and active class participation are required as the course is designed as a workshop. Students are allowed to miss only one class in the entire duration of the course. A legitimate explanation must be provided for any further absence. Should a student be unable to deliver the scheduled presentation, he or she is required to inform the instructor well in advance in order to allow for a change of the course schedule. Failure to deliver the assigned presentation shall result in course failure.
All paper submission deadlines must be held. To pass the course, students must fulfill all of their assignments. Papers will be assessed based on the first draft submitted.
The evaluation/classification of the student’s endeavour will be based on the active class participation (15 per cent), presentation (25 per cent) and final paper (60 per cent).
Plagiarism will meet zero tolerance. Infringement will result in course failure as well as further disciplinary action.
Please make sure that all your papers are mailed in copy to the main course convener stepan.pellar@gmail.com
