Examiners

Information

Examination topics

Only those texts that are explicitly discussed by the course instructor during the course of the semester and are therefore part of the power point slides are relevant for the examination. The power point slides will be made available for you on Moodle by tutor Cristina Chitu during the course of the semester.

Assessment and permitted materials

4 written exam dates: The first exam takes place on January, 31st, 2023. The following exams will be in at the beginning of March 2023, end of April 2023 and end of June 2023. (The exact date of all four exams will be announced during the semester).
The written exam consists of 3 essay questions with 3 sub-questions each, which have to be included in the respective essay .

In case we have to switch to digital teaching in the course of the semester, we also announce the digital examination modalities as a precaution:
The exam will consist of a digital written exam that will be handled via Moodle according to the format “digital written exams with open questions using an exam sheet for download” according to the specifications of the CTL. The students can download the examination form (Word document) at the beginning of the examination period and have to upload the processed examination form as a PDF back to Moodle within 90 minutes.
In the exam, three essay questions, each with three sub-points, are asked. The exam takes place in the open book format. Direct quotations are to be shown.
In the case of technical problems: If you cannot download the Moodle exam form, please send an email to arno.boehler@univie.ac.at. You will then receive the examination form by email. If you cannot upload the edited exam questionnaire as a PDF to Moodle, please also send the PDF to the email address carno.boehler@univie.ac.at before the end of the exam.

Dealing with quotations and literature: These are exams based on the open book format. If you should quote a passage from the literature or the literature on the slides directly in your essay, please either state the name, abbreviation of the book and book page (e.g. (Ronell, FT, p. 3)) or state the Powerpoint-slide number (e.g. (Slide 17)). If you paraphrase or refer to what was discussed in the lecture, you can simply write “For Nietzsche” or “As discussed in the lecture”, in order to save time.
By registering for this course, you agree that the automated plagiarism checking software Turnitin will check all written submissions made by you in Moodle.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

The written exam consists of 3 essay questions with 3 sub-questions each, which have to be included in the respective essay (max. 36 points, per essay max. 12 points, per sub-question max. 4 points): 0-18 points = Not Sufficient. 19-22 points = Satisfactory. 23-26 points = Satisfactory. 27-31 points = Good. 32-36 points = Very Good.
