Rules spring 2016

. When - Weekly meetings Thursday morning 9.30 unless agreed otherwise.

. Presentation - You should voluntaire to present a paper every 2-3 weeks

. Which paper - Select papers from the proposed (topic) list. In case you propose a paper yourself outside of a list, it needs to be agreed before to make sure that it is a 'technical' paper. Your (thesis) paper presentations also encouraged! The topic of the paper should fit in the broad definition of macroeconomics, but other fields are not excluded.

. How - Standard presentation is short, max 10-15 minutes (+ questions). Preparation of short slides or handout (reading notes) highly encouraged, this helps to focus your talk!

. What should be presented - 1. motivation/objective, 2. approach/method, 3. results. Make sure you understand why the paper is important (why this is a good paper). You do not need to read the full paper every time to give a good summary, although reading the paper might help!

. General - open for everybody, but regular and active participation is required!

OLD rules

2014 reeglid eesti keeles:

. Kokkusaamine ettekannetega iga kahe nädala tagant.

. Ettekande pikkus ca 7 min. Ette tuleb valmistada 3-4 slaidi. Slaididel peab kirjas olema eesmärk, kuidas tehtud ja tulemused. Sinna juurde vaja ka mille poolest artikkel oluline ja mida võiks veel teha. Hiljem võivad ses osas reeglid muutuda, mõnest artiklist on targem pikem ettekanne teha vms.

. Artikli võite välja pakkuda ise, seda peaks tegema hiljemalt 4 päeva enne kokkusaamist. Kuid reserveerin õiguse mitte lubada igat artiklit. Koostan ise ka nimekirja artiklitest, mille hulgast saab soovi korral valida.

. Macro on sulgudes selleks, et oleks avatud kõikvõimalikele huvitavatele artiklitele.

. Grupp on avatud kõigile, kuid osalemiseks peab tegema ettekande.
