Objective (expected results and acquired competences)
The topic around effect, impact and consumer perception of food processing will be acquired by active participation of the students. A main focus is on the critical reflection of scientific and eventual controversial topics, with special attention on information spread by various media sources (films, podcasts, videos). Additionally, the search of scientific literature will be learned and practiced. By summarizing the results in form of a short scientific paper basic skills in scientific writing will be gained. The students are able to summarize and present their results briefly, concisely and in an understandable way. Furthermore, the discussion and critical evaluation of (popular) scientific topics will be practiced.
