Readings, home assigments and active participation - 20% Presentation - 20% Final paper (1-3 authors, 4-6.000 words) - 50% Final test - 10%
Students are required to read the required readings and attend seminars with maximum of two absences (in a case of health or other grief issues student is supposed to contact lecturer). Main outcome of the student´s work in the course is the final paper that can be authored by up to 3 students. Students are expected to pick up their topic before the fifth week of the semester and to consult it with the lecturer. Final two seminars will be dedicated to the presentations of the students´ own research on the final paper. Final multiple-choice test will deal with the basic knowledge covered in the course. After their presentations students have a month to finalize their papers and upload them to the Moodle system. After grading the paper the personal discussion with the lecturer over the paper will be held as a final requirement. Presentation structure - topic and its relevance, research question, methodology, sources, necessary contextual info, preliminary findings. Final assessment: 100-91% - A 90-81% - B 80-71% - C 70-61% - D 60-51% - E 50-0% - F |
