Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

YOU NEED TO HAVE FOLLOWED MY SCIENTIFIC READING COURSE DURING WINTER SEMESTER TO ATTEND THIS COURSE.
This course provides guidance how to conduct a research project from which a scientific report will be written, that is, the bachelor thesis.
Specifically, since the skills to develop the theoretical background were trained during Scientific Reading, this course will focus on
(1) the practical preparation and planning of the experiment,
(2) the training of experimenter practice and data collection,
(3) the data analysis and hypotheses testing,
and (4) the writing of the scientific report in line with the Bachelor thesis guidelines.

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab

YOU NEED TO HAVE FOLLOWED MY SCIENTIFIC READING COURSE DURING WINTER SEMESTER 2017 TO ATTEND THIS COURSE.

You need to form a group of 6 students. You can create a new group or keep and modify your previous group. The group formation has to be finished by the end of the day of first class (15.03.2018).

The final version of the bachelor thesis should be handed by 31th of July. Expected length is 35000-40000 letters (about 20 pages), title page, abstract, appendix, and references list not included.
The thesis has to be written in English.

Prüfungsstoff

Each group will decide democratically its own way of writing the bachelor thesis. Here are a few propositions but other ways are welcome:
(a) Group writes Method & Results & Appendix) sections together (group part) and Introduction & Discussion sections are written individually. [Recommended by me]
(b) Each member write a different section of the thesis. So, no group part. [Coordinate well to make the whole thesis coherent! ]
(c) Each member focuses on a specific sub-question/hypothesis and thus write a sub-part of each section. [Coordinate well to make the whole thesis coherent! ]

You have to decide and notify me by the end of the second class (12.04.2018) which proposition you chose.
