Description of the teaching methods | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Lectures, workshops and individual supervision.
In addition to the extensive course readings, we will be working
with a partly student-driven curriculum where supplementary texts
pertaining to the course themes will be identified by students and
shared in a common 'resource pool' that all students can
draw on.
Data will to a large extent be generated by the students themselves, who will draw on their own previous experiences with culture. |

Feedback during the teaching period | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The students receive feedback on seven occasions
during the course:
1) Two x 15 minute individual supervision sessions with a teacher will assist students in choosing and refining the students' ideas for their assignment; 2) Five assignment development workshops will be held where the students receive input from a teacher about how to write their assignments, and will receive feedback from peers and from the teacher. Students may develop their ongoing idea into their exam paper; they are, however also free to choose a completely new topic if they prefer. These different feedback opportunities will equip students to apply the conceptual tools they have been taught in order to analyse their experiences with familiar and unfamiliar cultures. Students are also strongly encouraged to make use of the coordinator's office hours to discuss any questions they may have about the course. These sessions are not, however, intended as additional supervision sessions for students' exam assignments. |
