Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel
Weekly participation and preparation of all classes is compulsory (to be evaluated as either “sufficient” or “not sufficient” at the end of the course). “Sufficient” participation includes a maximum of 2 missed classes, and evidence of active engagement with the compulsory study materials through participation in discussions or classroom tasks. Students who don't attend the first class will be deregistered.Students must submit a set of 4 to 10 selected figures accompanying a final paper (1.600 words, 50% of the grade) by February 7, 2025. Feedback will be given within 4 weeks of submission.For the paper about the compulsory literature, reading, and submission deadlines are mentioned in the weekly schedule.
Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab
Attendance is compulsory (maximum 2 hours of absence).
The performance assessment consists of four (oral and written) components:
(a) active, discussion-based reading of the compulsory reading, written preparation of the discussion and short oral presentation (up to 30 points)
b) Weekly drawing etudes (20 points)
c) Final set of minimum 4 max 10 figures [this will depend on the style and argument you want to make] about the field case (25p points)
d) Writing a final paper of 1.600-1.750 words that accompany the set of figures (25 points, submission by February 7, 2025, 12:00)Secondary literature is allowed as an aid.
The use of AI (especially ChatGPT) is only permitted for all partial performances with the explicit request of the teacher.For a positive overall grade, all components must be completed positively and a total of at least 61 points must be achieved. The highest score to be achieved is 100 and corresponds to a 1 (very good).
The quantity AND quality of participation are assessed in the oral work, while the time allocation, the structure and content of the presentation and the questions with discussion leader are assessed in the pre-structuring with discussion leader.
Written work is assessed according to the following criteria:
- Formalities [e.g. citation style, formatting],
- Selection and factually appropriate scope of the processed literature
- Accuracy of the reproduction of the sources/literature
- Structure and organization of the work
- Clarity of the argumentation and the execution of the thought
- Reflexivity/ability to deal with sources/literature
- OriginalityAssessment standard:
1 (Very Good): 87 – 100
2 (Good): 75 - 86,99
3 (Satisfactory): 63 - 74,99
4 (Enough): 50 - 62,99
5 (Not Enough): 00 - 49,99

Letzte Änderung: Mo 07.10.2024 13:46
The course has four learning objectives. First, students gain insight into current debates about the developments of visual ethnography. Second, students learn to train their eyes to see from a visual perspective. Third, students will develop their skills to draw ethnographic notes to give voice to non-humans. Finally, students learn how to build an anthropological argument based on visual notes collected in the field.Please note: previous knowledge in drawing or art disciplines is not required.
