Process

 

The learning unit on Polish DPs will cover six lessons.

First of all, you should make up groups of 23 or a maximum of four persons and divide the themes amongst yourselves, for example by drawing lots.

Decide on a group speaker who will be responsible for keeping to the timetable and ensuring that the various tasks are distributed equally amongst the group, as well as being responsible for communicating with the respective teacher when problems arise.

Look at your assignments together and first of all consider which aspects of your theme might be important. Then decide on how you will approach the work on your part of the theme. Who will do research in the library/specialist literature? Who will research the suggested websites? Who will research additional websites? What keywords will be the most useful for your search? Who will research representations and who will research sources? How much time will you need for your research and how much time for your discussions in the group?

At the end of your research swap your results and work on the first version of your part of the title story.

Present your results to one another.

Agree (in the plenum) on a sensible sequence of part themes and develop the complete story.

Subsequently work over your texts in your groups.

Put the individual texts together and complete a final edited version.
