Course objectives
In this course the students themselves will become their own "tour-guides" in Vienna. They will get 3-5 topics and they will work independently on those topics throughout the whole semester. They will have to collect details and information about their topics and at the end of this course they will prepare a guided tour, which they will present in Vienna or virtually in the lesson. In the class students will develop and improve their speech and their way of presentation. A powerpoint presentation and a handout will be created by them.
