Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
Minimal requirement: active participation, one presentation on own research, circulated in advance.
The aim of the course is to help you exchange ideas with others. You will therefore not be graded based on the quality of the work you present, but based on how seriously, respectfully, and constructively you interact with colleagues. This does require, however, that you give a well-prepared presentation and make adequate materials available in advance, so that your colleagues, too, can prepare. It does not require that your research is ready for publication, beyond criticism, or free from error.

skills. Students are particularly encouraged to present early stage research and ‘test drive’ new ideas.
In each session one participant will give a presentation on a topic from their own research, followed by constructive discussion by the entire group. A written version of the talk should be circulated one week in advance. Each participant should give at least one presentation. If available, some session or sessions may also be devoted to the discussion of a previously agreed and studied text, or to discussing the work of a visiting speaker.
Engagement with the philosophical research of colleagues and from other areas of philosophy, presenting one’s own work in front of others as well as constructive and critical discussion of philosophical theses with others are important elements in the development of any researcher in philosophy. This helps, for
example, in the development of the following abilities:
1. Presenting effectively, coherently, comprehensibly and within the available time, pitched at a level appropriate to your audience.
2. Constructive engagement with other philosophers.
3. Productive and constructive discussion about philosophical theses (one’s own or others’).
4. Background knowledge and competence outside one’s own narrow research area.
