Teaching and learning methods
The seminar will take place in the form of a small group of students (max. ca. 12 students) with a focus on in-person participation. During presentations and discussions, all students will be actively involved in the seminar. The main part of the discussion will focus on the homework review, which includes the independent reading and reviewing of a scientific publication. Said publication will be introduced prior to the homework through the lecturer, who will guide the students into the topic. Additionally, each seminar meeting includes an open discussion about the methods used in the scientific context, guided by the lecturer.
