Learning outcomes
|
Seminar is deepening the subject matter from lectures throughout other topics about methodology and interpretations in paleolithic and Mesolithic archeology according the latest publications. Students will prepare a presentation with use of the recommended scientific literature connected to the problematics and after that they will present their work in form of a short lecture followed by the common discussion. Another goal is team work on a group project, e.g. proposal of archaeological IS for complex management of research data sets; a model proposal of grant project, design of archaeological experimental project etc.
Proficiency in the problematics, survey in current literature, ability to apply appropriate methodology to theconcrete Paleolithic/Mesolithic research, improvement of writing and presentation abilities and abilities of team cooperation.
