Exercises
The practical part of the course
is aimed at the students getting familiar with a few of the
most relevant research methodologies within cultural studies
and the social sciences. Some exercises can span accross 2 sessions,
to allow for more in-depth group-work and later plenary discussions,
other exercises can be individual.
This
page will store specific information about each of the exercises,
including the exercise guidelines, supplementary links as well
as links to student work.
