Format: more information
Five blended sessions in which the students will work according to the "flipped classroom" principle. Each session requires thorough preparation and reading ahead of time. During the contact sessions the lecturer only briefly revisits the content, creating space to deepen the topics together through cooperative methods and discussions. Students will be informed at the start of the semester. The preparatory reading is expected to be done so the work in class can go on as planned.
