Each participant must achieve a certain number of collaboration points (announced at the beginning of the semester) over the semester and complete the case solution on at least one LVA date.

Feedback culture:
Individual feedback is provided both directly in the discussion and when solving practical cases.

Methods The IK uses a combination of different teaching methods to

  1. maximize the motivation and attention of the students.
  2. achieve the learning objectives in the didactically best way.

This includes the following

  • Teacher-centered information input, supported by slides and literature
  • Self-directed learning, supported by slides and literature
  • Independent and joint solution of practical cases on civil and corporate law
  • Joint repetition and deepening of the theoretical foundations taught in the KS
  • The IK is offered several times each semester, with at least one IK being held digitally to enable students who are unable to attend in person to complete the IK.
