Some tips Start to work immediately. We want you to think and understand your topic. Do not go to the presentation without having understood what you are presenting. This is a seminar where you learn how to do scientific work. If you have questions / problems – do not hesitate to ask me. DO NOT copy! Whenever you cite somebody, cite properly. When you use work of somebody else, re-phrase and summarize in your own words and cite properly. Have a look how proper citations look like (on the STI website there are plenty of papers) 8 8
