Aims, contents and method of the course
Assessment and permitted materials
Planning of a classroom session in small groups:
The students will plan and lead through one session in small groups (approx. 35 min), consisting of the presentation of a scientific paper (suitable literature is provided, approx. 20 min) and a guided group phase (e.g. discussion or experiment, approx. 15 min).
During the classroom sessions, several students should write a protocol (additional course credits for volunteers). This is to ensure that students who are unable to participate in the classroom session due to the Covid-19 situation (e.g. (pre-)illness, care of relatives, etc.) can catch up on the subject matter at home by themselves and in consultation with the teachers.
There is also the option of discussing the structure of the units with the teachers in advance.Homework:
In preparation for each classroom session, all students read the relevant literature. There will be follow-up exercises in Moodle after each session (e.g. short multiple-choice test, short statement writing, summaries, etc.)Final thesis:
Each student will independently find an article that fits to one of the discussed topics and write an essay (organization into the topic, summary, criticism, possible further studies).LABS credits:
To pass the course, active participation in psychological research to the extent of 8 credits (2 hours) is required, as far as the university hygiene guidelines allow at that time.
