Learning and Teaching Methods
For each lecture one or two scientific papers will be provided prior to the lecture
Students are asked to read the papers priors to the lecture
during the lecture the papers are explained and additional information are added in a more global context
additional references are provided in the lectures
Questions are discussed at the end of each lecture to check the comprehension of the subject
Lecture notes are provied prior to each lectures
Media
Slides, papers, dedicated book references
Literature
provided during the lectures, prior to them
Module Exam
Description of exams and course work
There will be an oral exam of 25 minutes duration. Therein the achievement of the competencies given in section learning outcome is tested exemplarily at least to the given cognition level using comprehension questions and sample calculations.
Exam Repetition
The exam may be repeated at the end of the semester.
