Inhalte der LV:

The primary aim of this course is to familiarize students with the processes and procedures involved in academic research and effective writing. The coursework will cover various topics, including organizing the research process, adhering to ethical standards in sourcing and citation, identifying potential research subjects, and crafting academic papers.

The course consists of 3 main topics:

  • Reflecting on academic work: This includes differentiating between everyday language and the language of science and developing a research question.
     
  • Organizing academic work: This includes the following.
    • Developing a (bachelor’s) thesis or academic paper by understanding the typology of theses and taking the steps from a research idea (topic), to the research question, to the composition and scope.
    • Organizing a (bachelor’s) thesis or academic paper by understanding topics related to literature research, literature utilization and preparation, citation, formal requirements, and time management.
       
  • Writing scientific text: This includes topics such as visualizing complex content, writing special texts, navigating writer's block, and drafting text from the rough to the final version.
