Educational objectives
Students must be able to effectively analyse and present different types of texts. Knowledge and understanding Students should acquire a knowledge and understanding of the scientific fundamentals of the learning area covered. They should be able to demonstrate a professional competence in the area of text presentation that goes beyond the generally available knowledge and understanding. Ability to apply knowledge and understanding Knowledge and understanding of the scientific fundamentals of the learning area should enable students to deepen their knowledge. Furthermore, they should be able to make their knowledge, skills and understanding applicable in professional life and practice within the framework of the most important theories, principles and methods. Autonomy of judgement The aim of the course is to enable students to critically evaluate and interpret relevant information that relates to the course content, without limiting themselves to this, in order to make valid judgements and to independently design further learning processes. Communication skills Students should be able to communicate externally the content they have acquired and the conclusions they have reached from it clearly and distinctly, to exchange ideas with others about it at a high level, to work in a team and to take responsibility for projects. Learning skills During the course, independent learning is to be promoted by tackling subject-specific texts and exercises with the aim of expanding and deepening the knowledge acquired in autonomous self-reflection and/or group work.

Assessment

Evaluation criteria
