TEACHING
The teaching will consist of lectures, lessons, group discussions, excursions, field studies, study visits and literature seminars. A project (equivalent to 4 credits) that combines the different aspects of the course is included in the course. The project will be carried out by the end of the course and will, in other words, be focused on the content of all four different course modules. Preparatory to the project work, there will be tuition in the basics of research methodology, the theory of science and descriptive statistics, and in the reading and writing of scientific reports.


EXAMINATION
Evaluation of performance of course assignments carried out in the form of reflecting reports. Written and oral examination, individually and in groups. Projects will also be evaluated.
