After successful completion of the course, students are able to understand and present materials from the mathematical literature, not only in a 1:1 reproduction but in their personal way concerning the presentment and interpretation.
Alternatively, soft skills can be developed in small groups.
We deal with the numerical treatment of ordinary differential equations (ODEs),one of the most important fields in Numerical Analysis.The first talk will possibly be given by the professors to specify and illustratethe most important basic notions which characterize numerical methods.Further talks to be presented by the students will be devoted to variousclasses of problems and numerical methods.

Use of blackboard, possibly combined with beamer presentation. Handout, and accordingly presentation of own numerical results.
