Teaching Method

At the faculty of science, teaching is organized after the three-phase model ie. intro, training and study phase.

In the intro phase a modified version of the classical lecture is employed, where the terms and concepts of the topic are presented, from theory as well as from examples based on actual data. In these hours there is room for questions and discussions. In the training phase the students work with data-based problems and discussion topics, related to the content of the previous lectures in the intro phase. In these hours there is a possibility of working specifically with selected difficult concepts. In the study phase the students work independently with problems and the understanding of the terms and concepts of the topic. Questions from the study phase can afterwards be presented in either the intro phase hours or the training phase hours.

Note that part of the workload in this course is formally included in the course FF500: Introduction to subject, research and community of practice (5 ECTS).

Activities during the study phase:
  • Solve assignments
  • Read the assigned literature
  • Practice to apply the acquired knowledge
