2023, summer term; Tuesdays, 13:10-14:45, Room Z4

Organization:

Each class (starting from 21/2) requires prior preparation. Starting from the third class (28/2) onwards, students must upload their assignments at least one hour before the beginning of the respective class into the following folder: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1tbetDqmKqD7uWS82TDkLf3w7Nt9uwUwC?usp=sharing

It means 10 assignments in total of which at least 9 must be uploaded in time. If not specified otherwise, the assignment is to create a mind-map based on the readings specified below (additional information from other sources identified by students themselves may also be used).

For each class we specify readings in terms of 2 academic papers or other materials. Selection of readings is very essential. Students will be divided into two groups and each of the groups will have to read one of the papers and create their mind maps based on this reading. If there are 6 students, it means that 3 of them will provide their mind maps based on the first paper and the other 3 based on the second paper

Organization of particular classes depends on teachers but a model class may be as follows:

Introduction - 15-20 mins presentation by a teacher (should be related to readings but not identical, ideally some more general intro to the topic).

Discussion of the 1st paper - students from the first group present their mind maps and teacher facilitates discussion (20 mins)

Discussion of the 2st paper - students from the second group present their mind maps and teacher facilitates discussion (20 mins)

Summary, conclusions - organized by teacher - either facilitates discussion or provides some summary presentation (15 mins)
