Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel
Students will be evaluated as follows:
- Presentation of article/chapter for in-class discussion (30%)
- Final paper of approx. 2.500 words (50%)
- Mandatory attendance and in-class-participation (20%)Important Grading Information:
The provision of all partial tasks is a prerequisite for a positive assessment, if not explicitly noted otherwise.The use of AI tools (e.g. ChatGPT) for the production of texts is only permitted if this is expressly requested by the lecturer (e.g. for individual work tasks).In order to ensure good scientific practice, the lecturer can provide for a "grading-related discussion" (plausibility check) of the written work submitted, which must be completed successfully.All students who received a place in the course are assessed if they have not deregistered from the course in due time or if they have not credibly shown an important reason for their failure to deregister after the cause for this reason does no longer apply
Students who credibly show an important reason (e.g. a longer illness) for the withdrawal from a course with continuous assessment are not assessed.
Whether this exception applies is decided by the lecturer. The request for deregistration must be submitted immediately.If any requirement of the course has been fulfilled by fraudulent means, be it for example by cheating at an exam, plagiarizing parts of a written assignment or by faking signatures on an attendance sheet, the student's participation in the course will be discontinued, the entire course will be graded as "not assessed" and recorded accordingly.
You can find these and other provisions in the study law: https://satzung.univie.ac.at/studienrecht/.In case you have received three negative assessments of a continuously assessed course and want to register for a fourth attempt, please make sure to contact the StudiesServiceUnit Sociology. (for more information see "third attempt for continuously assessed courses" https://soziologie.univie.ac.at/info/pruefungen/#c56313)The plagiarism-detection service (Turnitin in Moodle) can be used in course of the grading.

Students will be introduced to major theoretical approaches, contemporary debates and empirical findings in the sociology of Youth, with a specific focus on the transition from school to work. The course will mostly adopt an institutional and policy perspective, looking at education systems, labour market regulations and policies, transitions systems or regimes. Secondary data from Eurostat online database will be used to compare outcomes and traits of different countries (no specific statistical competences are requested).
The course will adopt a student-centered approach with a strong competence orientation. This course will enable students to critically engage with specialistic literature on sociology of youth and transitions from school to work, evaluate its usefulness and use it to discuss social, economic, political, cultural issues related to youth.
Students will engage in active participation (in-class workshops, group work and discussions) as well as in-class presentations. They will also progressively build a case study research paper with in-class and out-class activities - including coming up with a suitable research question, performing a basic literature review, structuring the paper, performing several writing exercises, give and receive feedback along the way.
