Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
The aim of the course is to provide a deep understanding of motivation across adulthood, as well as practical know-how to apply that knowledge in a concrete and personally meaningful way. The content covers different theories on motivation and environmental factors influencing motivation in relevant life contexts.
Assessment and permitted materials
Students should read a recommended scientific paper every week and answer a related question on Moodle in advance to the seminar. Each week two students should shortly present (max. 5 minutes each) a concept related to the recommended paper of that week.
