Requirements and assessment method:

In order to successfully complete the course the participants are required to:

a) attend the classes (!) – 2 absences allowed (1 absence = 1,5 hours). Each absence above 2 allowed results in necessity to pass the material from all topics discussed until the date of passing (orally or in writing). More than 50% absences result in failing the course;

b) in-class presentation. The topics of the presentations will be delivered at the first class (they include i.a. analysis of cases from the reading materials). The presentations are obligatory. Students will sign up for a topic no later than second Tuesday of classes. It will not be possible to be assigned a presentation after the second class. Failing to register results in failing the course. The presentations may be 15 minutes maximum. The presentations are to be prepared individually. The assessment of the presentation will be based on:

o whether it talked about the assigned topic

o fluency of the speakers (language mistakes are not considered but you need to be prepared)

o preparation of the handout (a short summary of the presentation) to be provided with every student in an electronic form)

If you fail the presentation, i.e. do not meet the requirements listed above your final grade will be met with the same consequence as if you did not present. A very well prepared presentation, rated with a grade 5, raises the final grade by 1 grade.

c) read the assigned literature and actively participate in the discussion during the classes (the arguments used should be based on the previous readings) – regular in-class participation raises the final grade by 1/2 grade;

d) participate actively in solving case studies discussed during the classes – regular and correct solving case studies raises the final grade by 1/2 grade.

Attention: Grade 5 from this seminar:

(i) increases your final grade from the test (to be written from all topics discussed during this seminar and lectures) by 1 grade or

(ii) results in passing the final test if you fail it by maximum 10%.

In USOS you get a credit or no credit for the seminar, i.e. the grade is not to be indicated.
