Argumentation for Biosystems Engineering

ELS10801

Over deze cursus

The course offers students the possibility to practice the skills that are necessary to deliver an oral argumentation in the right context and for the right purpose. It gives theory and tools for scientific argumentation and debate. Observing and assessing one's own argumentation skills will raise awareness on the basis of which improvements can be made. The skills of others (both peers and role models) will be analysed and given peer feedback.
Based on the theory of argumentation, fallacies ad biases, and during the meetings, the application of these theories will be discussed. Students learn how to apply the theories in their field of agrotechnology by exercises and practice and examples from the field. Students will actively participate during the sessions.
