• An oral presentation of the group assignment and give oral feedback to another group’s presentation (peer assessment/opponent), with a duration of up to 25 minutes.
• Individual oral presentation of an assignment and give feedback to a fellow student, with a duration of up to 15 minutes

Individual home examination over two weeks. Scope: 2,500 words (+/- 10%).
