The first webinar instructs and stages the progress of the course and assigns a preliminary task to the first contact.
The central learning task of the course is a work-based development task performed by the student in his / her own (or imagined) work organization during the course. The student can choose a topical development topic related to the themes of the course from his / her own organization. The aim is to apply theoretical knowledge to solve a practical problem and to write a project plan-type reflective essay or project report on it.

Further information for students

The assessment of the course is based on the assessment criteria derived from the learning objectives.

Tasks are assessed as accepted / rejected, except for the work-based development task (see above), which is assessed with grades 0-5.
The evaluation of the entire course (0-5) thus consists in practice of the grade of the development task.

Content scheduling

The course starts with a webinar on 25.9. 10.30-12.00.
The webinar instructs and stages the progress of the course and assigns a preliminary task to the first contact.
The central learning task of the course is a work-based development task performed by the student in his / her own (or imagined) work organization during the course. The student can choose a topical development topic related to the themes of the course from his / her own organization. The aim is to apply theoretical knowledge to solve a practical problem and to write a project plan-type reflective essay or project report on it.

Further information for students

The assessment of the course is based on the assessment criteria derived from the learning objectives.

Tasks are assessed as accepted / rejected, except for the work-based development task (see above), which is assessed with grades 0-5.
The evaluation of the entire course (0-5) thus consists in practice of the grade of the development task.
