"Würfelteil"

first part of the course is a so
called "Würfelseminar", i.e.
certain topics are to be prepared by all
participants. Every 10 minutes, say, a different person will be asked
(at random -> Würfel) to present the next
pages of the
underlying literature. The purpose is
(i) to obtain some common
knowledge base by all participants, and
(ii) to facilitate discussion.
