Jan Völker
Institute of Studies in Art and Art Education, Philosophy
2026S, scientific seminar (SEW), 4.0 ECTS, 2.0 semester hours, course number S05847
Scientific bachelor seminar for teacher education
Description
We continue our review of the critique of capitalism and its technological future: this time, however, we turn to practical considerations. Can there be a practice of critique? What practice is appropriate? Or is practice merely a displacement activity?
Examination Modalities
The seminar will be held in German.
A detailed seminar schedule will be distributed at the beginning of the first session. The texts will be made available in the cloud as early as possible, but at least one week before the session.
Requirements for successful participation:
- Regular attendance (min. 80%)
- Reading of the relevant texts in preparation for the individual sessions
- Active participation
- Writing of 3 short essays during the course of the seminar. The deadlines for submitting the essays are spread throughout the semester and will be announced at the beginning of the seminar. The last essay must be presented and discussed in the seminar.
