Seminar
M.Sc. Language Science and Technology
M.Sc. Language and Communication Technologies
B.Sc. Computerlinguistik
Wed 16:00-17:30, C7.2/5.09
Reading: For each class, you are required to read one or two papers (see Schedule). For each paper, please send me one question that you want to be answered or discussed in class (on the day preceding the class, before midnight).
Presentation: An oral presentation of 30-45 minutes, typically based on a core paper and maybe some complementary reading. Please contact me (1) when you have been assigned a topic/paper and want to start working on it; (2) when you have a pre-final draft version of the presentation. After your presentation I will provide feedback to you. The final version of your slides will be posted on the course homepage.
Term Paper: MSc students opting for the 7 CP version have to write a term paper (15-20 pages, deadlines see below). The topic of the paper need not be identical or overlap with the topic of your oral presentation.
Oral Exam: If you decide to take an oral exam, we will together select 2 topics, which are disjoint from the topics of your presentation and term paper. Exam duration is 15-20 minutes.
