Seminarium
Plats: Ka-540 (Ka-Forum 540)

We will organize the oral presentation session so that each review group present according to this schedule:

- 3-4 presentations, max 5 min each (total 15-20 min)

- summary of main review points per country (5 min)

- comment and questions from other students and teacher (5-10 min)

 

This will mean 30 - 35 min per reviewgroup.
We can have short breaks between each group and one longer (coffe) break around 10.00

 

In order to save time at the oral presentation I ask you to do like this:
Each review group prepares one power point file with the country presentations and the main review comments in summary and send to me November 13 at 16:00 latest.
