Student-designed Honours Seminar
Cursusdoel
- generate ideas
- exercise independent learning
- work with the principle of self-assessment
- create and stimulate a learning community within the course
- provide material and experiences that can be used to filter back to the regular curriculum
- independently find and review literature on the topic of their choice and derive a set of academically relevant and clearly formulated questions to be explored and researched during the course
- elaborate these questions into a complete course plan, consisting of a detailed course manual with weekly contents and procedures
- produce a number of self-chosen assessment pieces that testify to high-level academic quality
- combine insights from various academic disciplines or fields of study, and derive overarching conclusions from them
Vakinhoudelijk
The content of this course is determined by the students, guided and advised by the course supervisor(s). It must be an interdisciplinary topic, that is a topic that is studied from the perspective of multiple disciplines with the goal of integration of the different findings. Course supervisors change every time the course is offered.
The course takes the form of a seminar with student-organised lectures, workshops, and presentations. The exact format differs per topic, and the course proceeds as described in the full course outline, produced by the students in the course of the previous semester.
Grading and necessary assessment pieces
This is a Pass/Fail course. The Honours Director will receive from the supervisor the P/F grade for each of the students.
Students describe their learning activities and grading components in their outline. They must include:
- A final essay: each students writes a paper on the topic of the course that integrates the perspective of at least 2 disciplines, consist in at least 1000 words, be based on at least 5 sources and can include video, drawings, etc. The paper-supervisor (who can be the course-supervisor or another colleague) communicates their P/F grade + a few lines of feedback to: the student, the course-supervisor and the honours director, by the Spring semester grading deadline.
- The final symposium, in which the students share their experiences and lessons learned with the whole UCU community and their educational recommendations: Honours teaching is meant to be an experimental garden for educational innovation. The Honours director communicates to the students their collective P/F grade and a few lines of narrative assessment about quality of the presentation(s), reflection on what kind of spillover do students envision to regular courses, PR, Q&A, snacks…
- a self-evaluation document, produced by the whole group (not individually), which will be linked to the "Overview of previous topics": https://students.uu.nl/en/university-college-utrecht/academics/curriculum-enrichment-options/student-led-honours-seminar. It can be in any form the students wish, e.g. a pptx, a vlog, a video, a text (circa 5 minutes, 750 words). In this document the students share their experience with the future generation students; it is based on a log kept throughout the course, and communicates their reflections as a group on personal growth and content learned, and their recommendations. The Honours director communicates to the students their collective P/F grade and a few lines of narrative assessment
