This course consists of two preparatory sessions (Oct. 4 & 11, 16:45-18:15), four block dates (Dec. 6 & 13, Jan. 10 & 17, 2023, 16:45-20:00 each), and two wrap-up sessions (Jan. 24 and 31, 16:45-18:15). Participants will work in small groups on a project throughout the semester. The results of these projects will be presented both at a joint group presentation (block dates). In addition, short individual seminar papers will be written on the respective project topic. An essential element of the course are the discussions following the presentations as well as the discussion in the online area of the course. In addition to the own project work, at least one contribution to other project topics should be written on the teaching platform Moodle. As part of the post-processing of the project presentations, there will be a small test that summarizes the core content of the project topics.
