Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Knowledge of empirical methods for later teaching practice, critical evaluation and learning to apply them partially. The focus of the course is on qualitative methods: methods for data collection (observation, interview, written survey) and data analysis (grounded theory, qualitative content analysis, ...).

Assessment and permitted materials

Attendance. Active participation. Completion of compulsory reading. Short presentation. Work in small groups. Completion of regular online tasks (moodle).

The use of AI tools (e.g. ChatGPT) for the production of texts is only permitted if this is expressly requested by the course instructor (e.g. for individual assignments).

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

a) Attendance and participation in the attendance units (digital and/or hybrid) 20%
b) Short presentation 30%
c) Online tasks 50%
Each partial performance must be completed positively.

Attendance is compulsory for pi-courses (digital attendance in the synchronous units). Absences will only be excused in justified cases, e.g. illness (only with a doctor's certificate), conflicting examination dates, compulsory participation in an excursion, caring duties, etc. (only with confirmation).

Examination topics

This course is designed to enable students to critically analyse empirical literature and studies in order to draw the most important information for their own research projects. By learning about and practising various empirical methods, they should also be able to select and apply the appropriate method for their academic work, analyse it and interpret the results appropriately. These skills are to be learnt and practised through the independent completion of weekly online tasks.
