| TEACHING |
The contents are based on the students' experiences and are thematically processed. The course is offered as a distance course with recurring seminars on each country. During and between the seminars, the students work in small groups with independent literature studies and field studies with experience and analysis assignments. The seminar sessions consist of lectures, group work and independent reflection. Popular cultural expressions with important inter-cultural contents are utilised to the extent possible. The studies are organised by means of a study guide and individual study plans and also, to the extent possible, by means of ICT support. Strong emphasis is placed on comparative studies, through cooperation between students from different cultural environments.
