Working methods and requirements for completing the course
As this is a very hands-on course that relies on group work, class attendance is compulsory. During the course, you will be completing the following assignments individually or as a group:
• Groups will be required to submit a brief research plan at the beginning of each project and written project reports (of about 1500 words each) at the end of each module; each student will also submit individual assessments of their group members (themselves included).
• Groups will present one of the projects orally in class.
• Each student comments on at least three group presentations.
• At the end of the course, each student submits a portfolio that consists of three project reports and a short reflection paper.
Each report/presentation should explain what the research project is about, describe how the research was carried out, and present and evaluate the results of the project. The groups will get feedback on the first two reports and the presentation that can be used to revise the reports if students/groups wish to do so. In the reflection paper that will be included in each portfolio students will analyze their own learning with regard to the learning objectives for the course and give themselves a grade for the course.
Assessment
1-5, fail. The assessment of the course will be based on the average of the grades for the written reports, but self-evaluation (in the reflection paper), peer assessment, and active participation in class (e.g. commenting the work of others, class attendance, analysis in reflection paper) can influence the final grade.
