Brief description of the course
The course is mostly practical. Guest lecturers introduce their experiences. Students become familiar with the different roles and aspects (planning, leading, guiding
and teamwork, communication, merchendising, budget, formal aspects), introduce in seminars their project (part) from both the content and the organizational side, build
teams and take their dueties in agreed rolls until the real event has taken place. The course ends with a pass or fail seminar, where every student reflects and assesses
(self and peertopeer assessment) the process experiences (objectives, planning process, success and fail experiences, future aspects).
