- Metody hodnocení
- 1) READING, RESEARCH QUESTIONS AND REFLECTION DISCUSSIONS (FROM WEEKLY LITERATURE OR WEEKLY PRACTICE TASKS): All of the classes are complemented by a list of literature (obligatory and sometimes supplementary). students can also receive recommendations to attend a cultural or social event or watch a movie related to the topic of the lecture. On a weekly basis, students are expected to complete one of the following tasks (there is a different task for each week in the interactive syllabus). The weekly task is graded for 4 points each. 1) an audio or video record of a brief discussion among students (in a group of up to 3 people) on the material read and studied prior the lecture. No longer than 20 minutes. The audio/video file should contain the names of the students who participated in the discussion in the title. 2) prepare a 200-word discussion paper based on the readings. The document should contain your critical view of the readings and not duplicate (retell) the content of the readings. The document should be of a discussion nature. For example, what do you agree with, what questions did the literature or topic prompt you to ask, how can the issue raised by the author be considered today, does the content of the reading correlate with what we (you) observe in our social reality? The completed tasks should be uploaded to the Homework Vault not later than 9.00 AM the day before the class. This semester – every Wednesday. 2) CLASS DISCUSSION FACILITATION AND PARTICIPATION: On a weekly basis, at least 2 students will be assigned as discussion facilitators according to the readings. Discussion facilitation is a mandatory assignment during the semester and is worth 10 points. Participation in each discussion - active discussion is encouraged with an additional 2 points for each participant. In order to record these points, each student who participated in the discussion during the class must come to the teacher after the end of the class and record their participation so that the teacher can mark it during the evaluation. 3) PRACTICAL ASSIGNMENT – the conduction of the in-depth interview on the identity issue – for better practicing and understanding the ways of studying identity - 10 points. 4) FINAL EXAM: In-class. At the end of the semester, students will receive a written and oral assignment, the completion of which will prove that they have passed the course – 30 points. Exam will include writing the answers to 3 open questions on the topic of the course. The detailed instruction will be provided during the course. Grading: The final grade consists of: 1) Weekly reading, home tasks and fieldworks (up to 50%) 2) Group assignment – discussion facilitation (10%) 3) Practical assignments during the course (10%) 4) final exam (30%) based on compulsory readings and practical assignment.
