Presentations (30 %)

Students will choose one European country and prepare an oral presentation about its culture and civilization. The presentations should last around 20-30 minutes and some of the following fields could be covered: Background, history (5 meaningful events only), geography, languages, sociological overview, education, religion, economy, politics, the Media, cultural conflicts, cultural products (Literature, Cinema, Art), role in Europe. Special emphasis should be placed on cultural conflicts and on each student’s field of expertise (preferably their University Major).You need to choose a country and a date as soon as possible and then you have to attend one of the Wednesday tutorials to let me know about your ideas about the presentation.
