Teaching and learning methods

The following coursework requirements must have been approved for the student to take the exam:

  • Coursework 1: A group of 2-4 students creates a poster on one of the course topics. The poster describes a research project in progress and must be accompanied by a note (4 pages) that provides a detailed description of the poster.
  • Coursework 2: Plenary presentation (10-15 minutes) of the poster with all group members participating. Before the presentation, each group is assigned a poster and notes from another group to provide a thorough commentary. Like the poster, the commentary should include both a written note (2 pages) and an oral discussion with all group members participating.

The purpose of the requirements is to contribute to achieving learning outcomes, especially the skill requirements. Requirements must be completed and approved by the specified deadline for students to take the exam. In the case of absence or non-compliance, the student/group must submit a text on an assigned topic by a set date and present it to the instructors. If a requirement is not approved, there is an opportunity to submit a revised version once.
