Objectives (course unit)

The study of literature is distinct because it requires the perspective and the skills of critical reading and analyzing. The literature essay requires personal interpretation and clear expression of ideas.

The student will independently familiarise himself/herself with literature in his/her interest fields (for example entrepreneurship, management, communality, innovation or marketing) and write an essay on the book.

After completing the course, students will be able to:
Critically read and analyse literature
Formulate a coherent summary from the literature (argument, essay)
Build own interpretations from literature
Act ethically when citing or referring to text written by another author

Content (course unit)

What are the main topics and central concerns of the literature review?
What are the critical points of the topic?
How to present a reasoned argument?
How to present a coherent essay about the topic?
