The seminary is about current ideas in what science think memory is and how memory is formed. We will discuss a couple of ideas with respect to their limits and facts we know so far. Based on that, you will learn to develop a research idea in order to answer open questions which might have come up during your discussions. The first appointment serves as a introduction into the seminar. In the second appointment, you will present 6 different models/theories about memory formation. You will discuss the limits and highlights of each model, in comparison with other models. The third appointment will be used to develop your own research idea based on the discussions in the second appointment.

In this seminar, you´re going to "play" different roles within a session in groups of 5 people. In each session, you will prepare either a presentation within your group on the theory of the day or a counter-presentation. Another group will be responsible for organizing the schedule of the session (organizing breaks, leading the discussion...), and a fourth group will only discuss. The responsibilities will change in the following sessions, so that each of you had either a presentation or a counter-presentation, organized the schedule or just discussed.

In the end, you will be assessed individually in each of the four roles, and your final score will be the average of all of them. There will therefore be no final examination. 

Attendance is also compulsory. The seminar is designed in such a way that, in addition to teaching memory theories, you will also be prepared for the various roles in an academic career. Therefore, there will be no possibility to do alternative work due to absence.
