Každý přednášející seznámí s relativně uzavřeným metodologickým tématem v přednášce s diskusí. Předem stanoví nebo rozešlou vyučující doktorandům alespoň jeden reprezentativní text k tématu. Od posluchačů se očekává studium zadané základní literatury ke všem probíraným problémovým okruhům. Garant přednášky navrhne odborné stati k tématu a bibliografické údaje spolu s literaturou
k vypsanému tématu zašle před nebo po přednášce Janě Vojanové a ta je dle možnosti buď vyvěsí na webovou nástěnku nebo rozešle přihlášeným doktorandům. Každý z účastníků kurzu si zvolí téma své seminární práce v rámci okruhu témat některého z vyučujících, tj. nejpozději v dubnu se přihlásí k některému z vyučujících a získá jeho souhlas s tématem své seminární práce. Poté, nejpozději do konce června daného roku, zašle seminární práci (článek) na schválené téma zvolenému vyučujícímu. Ten zhodnotí seminární práci, případně její přepracovanou verzi. Hodnocení zašle studentovi a garantovi kurzu. Povinností doktoranda je získat toto hodnocení nejpozději do 10. září daného roku. Pro doktorandy, kteří jsou prokazatelně na dlouhodobých zahraničních stážích platí obdobné termíny. Také zpracují, po dohodě s některým přednášejícím, seminární práci. Návštěvu přednášek tito účastníci nahrazují třemi tématickými konspekty (v rozsahu 3-5 stran) z literatury zadané jednotlivými přednášejícími dle své volby. Studenti, kteří se nezúčastní více než dvou přednášek, mají za povinnost psát konspekty jako píší studenti na dlouhodobých zahraničních stážích, avšak z témat, na nichž absentovali.

Principles of work in the course:

Each instructor will introduce a specific limited methodological topic in a lecture with a discussion. The teacher determines or distributes to doctoral students at least one representative text in English on the matter. Students are expected to study the assigned primary literature in all discussed areas. The lecturers will propose professional articles on the subject and send bibliographic data together with the literature on the listed topic before or after the class to the course coordinator Mgr. Šárka Tesařová and she will either post them in the SIS or send them to registered doctoral students. Each of the course participants chooses the topic of their seminar work within the instructors' range of issues, i.e. no later than in Aprilthey register with one of the teachers and obtain their consent with their seminar work. Then, no later than at the end of Junea seminar paper (article) is sent on an approved topic to the selected teacher. He/She will evaluate the seminar work or its revised version. The evaluation will be sent to the student and the course guarantor. The doctoral student is obliged to obtain this evaluation no later than on the September 10th. Students work independently and avoid plagiarism according to the instructions: https://iss.fsv.cuni.cz/studium/bc-mgr-prace/plagiatorstvi 

Students who do not participate more than two lectures are obliged to write essays. Absences are replaced by three thematic summaries (in the range of 3-5 pages) from the literature given by individual lecturers of their choice.
