To obtain credit points for participation in this seminar, it is necessary to
1) attend the seminar regulary (sign the list in lecture hall or online sign in in the zoom chat) and
2) take part in at least 4 of the 5 post-seminar discussions (about 30 minutes).
The seminars where the name of the speaker is printed in bold type
and marked with * will have a post-seminar discussion.
During these discussions the quality of the talk will be discussed
(in the obligatory absense of the speaker). The speaker will later receive feedback
from one participant of the discussion.
