Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Assessment methods and criteria

Each student is required during each semester to complete one essay in the history of photography on a topic of their choice. (Limited only in time to the 20th century - but not in space or method.) A requirement of the work is working with sources and their presentation. This essay must be supplemented with a image section and presented as a lecture for their co-students in the same study year. This presentation is necessary for student assessment. Required is the personal viewpoint as well as the ability to work with literature. Each lecture should be a combination of multiple resources and an evaluation of those resources. Those resources must be presented precisely. The student receives an assessment from the instructor and their classmates for their lecture. That assessment is not only feedback but an activation of critical skills of the other students.

Aside from general fundamental literature, an emphasis is placed on original books and monographs and linked to theory literature.
