Planned Learning Activities and Teaching Methods

In addition to theoretical lessons given by the instructors, students are expected to write short critical texts on the readings. Through Reflective Diary / Comparison Platform tools such as Sakai or Padlet, these critical texts are shared with all students in order to have joint discussions. Reflective diary work, which aims to ensure active participation in the course and to learn from each other, will be evaluated as students' performances during the term, depending on the number and originality of the critical texts written by the students.
