Annotation:
This course covers the topics which are researched at the Department of Social Geography and Regional Development. The structure of the course reflects the system of research groups (https://www.natur.cuni.cz/geography/science-and-research/research-groups?set_language=en structure).
Each lesson starts with the brief introduction of the research group and then gives selected results of the human geographical research in Czechia. The course follows the Contemporary Human Geography I course (scheduled in winter terms), however, it is possible to enrol without preliminary experience from that course.
Each student will be required to select a supervisor by 28 February (according to his field of interest), prepare a three-page review of three professional articles (by 28 March) and a 15-page paper on a selected topic under the tutorship of the participant teachers (by 9 May) with the presentation (.ppt) followed 16 May.
Based on the paper, each student will give a ten minute Power Point presentation during the final class. Students are required to attend at least nine lessons and the final class with a presentation.
