Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The main aim of this course is to provide guidance for writing on the topic of ‘Alaska’ as well as to prepare a collective (online) publication from texts, which have been produced and after the seminar PR Fieldwork Alaska during SS2015. The course also intends to offer help and guidance to students who are currently producing a master thesis or bachelor paper on the topic. Hence, anyone who has participated in Fieldwork Alaska or who has previously worked on topics that are connected to this region is invited to participate. As a methods seminar and since it is aimed towards a collective publication at the end of the course we will focus on writing techniques. Nevertheless, we would like to accommodate every participant’s needs regarding the writing process, so input and help regarding data analysis and other topics will also be provided and discussed if necessary.
