Seminar 2

Study Systems, Control and Robotics Master – How? This second seminar will be devoted to learning, what it really means to know something and on different levels and forms of learning.

Reading before the seminar Several attempts have been made to classify different forms of learning objectives. One of the most popular is the so-called Bloom's taxonomy. To get a brief overview, please read the following.
