    Implementation and methods of teaching

    Sustainability Literature Review is a virtual course. Throughout this course, students will learn how to identify the keyword for their research topic and how to formulate their research question. Throughout the course the students have to choose different topics of interest in sustainability or circular economy and do a literature review on the topic. The course includes group workshops that are organized during the lectures and a final project which should be done individually. Doing the final project will help the students for their future thesis work as well. In addition, each student has to peer review one other student's final project and provide feedbacks and comments. The final project counts as 50% of the final grade and the assignments are 40% of the final grading. More detailed description of the course will be provided in moodle and in the first introduction session.
