Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
Seminar participants are guided toward the successful completion of their master's thesis project based on an existing proposal. They receive feedback and peer-group support in issues of methodology (questions of research design) and in writing chapters of their master's thesis. The seminar offers opportunities for teacher and peer feedback and fosters critical reflection on goals and implemention as well as individual motivation.
Assessment and permitted materials
Seminar participants are expected to complete four tasks: They present their proposal, give an oral presentation of one chapter of their thesis and submit two chapters in writing, one on theoretical foundations and one on methodology.
Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
Assessment is based on a 14-point system (two points each for presenting the proposal and the chapter, five points each for the chapters submitted in writing), and at least eight points are needed for a passing grade (9–10 p. = "3", 11–12 P. = "2", 13–14 P. = "1").
Attendance is mandatory. Students are allowed to miss one class; further absences are penalized by one point each.
