Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
Assessment and permitted materials
In order to finish the course, students have to:
1. attend the sessions on a regular basis,
2. contribute actively,
3. prepare for the separate topics (read papers at home)
4. give an oral presentation on a selected topic, and
5. deliver a written text on a selected topic.Please note: Slots in courses with continuous assessment are limited and sometimes coveted. Therefore, the following general rule applies: whoever registers and does not deregister on time(!) will receive a grade, no matter what.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
Minimum requirements:
Credit as BAC: PRO
Credit as M02, M03, M05: none
Credit as M09: nonePLEASE NOTE THAT THE COURSE WILL BE IN GERMAN!
so there is another implicit requirement: somewhat fluent German.Assessment:
The final grade will be based on a scoring system. A respective table will be provided and explained at the start of the semester.

Students, who finish this course
1. kno wthe anatomic structure of the central nervous system (CNS, basically: the brain),
2. understand the (neuro-)physiological processes of hearing,
3. know the fundamental integrative mechanisms of the auditory system (like streaming, perception of pitch, etc.)
4. know the respective literature,
5. learn to process and provide scientific contents in oral form (presentation), and
6. learn to structure and summarize scientific contents in form of an articulate text (seminar paper).Content:
1. mechanoelectrical transduction (transduction in the inner ear, activation of the auditory nerve, cochlear potentials, etc.)
2. neuro anatomy (structure of the central nervous system, neurons in general, and the auditory pathway from the spiral ganglion in the inner ear up to the auditory cortex)
3. neurophysiological phenomenons (auditory integration, pitch proceesing, emotional responses, etc.)
4. neuronal hearing disorders (tinnitus, amusia)Methods:
Due to the difficult circumstances, this course is a priori planned as distance learning. It will be held via BigBlueButton in moodle. Still, it is meant to resemble a “normal” (presence) course as much as possible.This course wants to
1. acquain the students with the respective scientific literature. Therefore, for every section a especially introduced scientific paper will must be read in preparation (home work).
2. support the critical investigation of scientific content. Therefore, interactive discussion will be a big part.
3. further tutor the independent processing and presentation of scientific content. therefore, a selected topic has to be presented in oral (presentation) and written form (seminar paper).Classroom teaching:
Please note, that the option of switching back to classroom teaching is explicitly kept alive if, at some point down the road, circumstances and regulations allow it. When that moment comes, the decision will be discussed among the participants of this course.
