Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
In the course of this class, students are training strategies and techniques on how to compose and present a work of scientific writing using their own Bachelor thesis as a hands-on example . At the center of this semester is the gradual development of a research project as well as critical reflection of one's own writing process. This process is accompanied and facilitated through exchange with other students and guided peer-feedback. Students document their work-process in form of a writing journal, they refine their research question(s), prepare the structure of their thesis and finally write an exposé on the topic of their thesis.
