Learning outcomes
The aim of the course will be to prepare students for successful completion of the State Final Examination. This includes both consolidating the practical skills necessary for presenting and discussing a topic, and a condensed summary and review of the curriculum from compulsory subjects such as PZ and ZT: ?Contemporary Critical Thinking?; ?Anthropology of Perception?; ?Philosophy of Imagination:Sharing Perspectives?; ?Man in a Post-Human Situation?; ?Environmental Ethics?; ?Religious Conflicts? ; ?National Identity and the Post-National World?.
Students will acquire the practical skills necessary to prepare a topic and present it orally at the final state examination. They will be able to structure a selected topic and present it at an appropriate professional level. Emphasis is also placed on the ability to respond to questions and discuss the issue in all relevant contexts. For fundamental problems in individual thematic areas, students will be able to present the most important arguments for various theoretical alternatives.
