    • You will prepare a short research paper in small groups. Here are a few recommendations based on which the reports will also be graded:

      • suggested length is 4–6 pages. 
      • format is free but clear structure is important.
      • include figures, illustrations and/or visual illusions
      • include a list of references; in addition to scientific articles, references can include websites etc. (where did you look for information? where did you get the pics?)
      • include a description of how the workload was divided within the group.
