Leistungsnachweis |
Students will need to pass three quizzes if they want credit for this seminar. Quizzes are announced tests checking whether students have read the novels in sufficient depth for class discussion. Please, do not miss more than three sessions as our classes will provide you with the absolutely necessary opportunity of discussing your interpretations and interacting with your co-students and the lecturer. All students are expected to participate actively in discussions. Also, students must present in class (15 min. plus discussion time) on a topic to be arranged with the lecturer and accompanied by a handout (Thesenpapier). Your handout is expected by your lecturer a week before your presentation is due. A copy of the reviewed handout must be available to all students on the day of presentation. Reading assignments (primary literature AND secondary literature) will be given on a weekly basis. At the end of the semester BA students will have to write a term paper (Hausarbeit) of ca. 12-15 pages, whereas students in education programs will have to take an oral exam of 30 min. The BA essays are due in March. |
