Political Philosophy in Practice 2751-KONJA-PPP
A student’s grade depends on the active participation in discussions about the problems and the literature proposed in the syllabus. By the concept of active participation the instructor understands taking part in discussions (particularly, the instructor expects students to ask him questions concerning proposed problems) or giving an oral presentation on a given topic. Oral presentation should take a stance on the topic, pose questions and propose solutions. Each presentation should take approximately 10-15 min.
