Materials

All the learning materials are mentioned in ItsLearning

Teaching methods

The course is structured as separate lectures and demo sessions. During the lectures, the teacher will go through the theory and the students are coding some exercises together with the teacher using their own computers.

Reading the given material and coding the programming exercises and exercise work.

Demonstrating and documenting the exercises and exercise work.

Exam schedules

There is no exam in this course

International connections

Self assessment
Student regularly pays attention to own learning and studying.
Students are asked to take notes from each programming exercise and contemplate at least the following:
* Topic area: What did I know about the topic beforehand? What did I think about the area?
* While coding: Thoughts about the challenge level and interest of the exercise.
* Afterwards: What did I learn?

Moreover, students learn to assess their own work regarding every assignment using scale: Excellent - Good - Sufficient.

Completion alternatives

1) Demonstrate e.g. a real work life project and showing that student masters the contents of this course.

2) mooc.fi contains a programming MOOC, whose contents covers the Introduction to Programming and Advanced Programming courses of the University of Helsinki. Courses are 10 credits together (5+5). Object oriented course can be alternatively completed by completing the second part of the course (i.e., parts 8 to 14).

Student workload

To pass this course requires acceptably finished coding exercises as well as exercise work and return in time.

5 credits: 27 * 5 = 135 hours

Weekly work amount: 135 hours / 14 weeks = 9.5 hours a week.

Content scheduling

The exercises in this course are done with Python

Objective

Assessment methods and criteria

The course contains 8 weekly exercises and an exercise work (that corresponds 4 weekly exercises). They can contain both programming theory and coding.

Each exercise has several tasks, from which points are given. Maksimum points from each exercise is 10 and from all exercises is 120.

Grade is formed based on the number and quality of acceptably finished exercises and the presence at class:

less than 60 points -> grade 0
60 points -> grade 1
72 points -> grade 2
84 points -> grade 3
96 points -> grade 4
108 points -> grade 5
Presence less than 75 % on the Friday lectures (without an acceptable reason) reduces the exercise points by 10%.
Acceptable reason to skip lectures is illness (or sudden tragedy in immediate family). Please inform teacher in advance if you cannot make it to the lecture. Working or holiday trip etc. are not acceptable reasons for absence.

Assessment criteria, fail (0)

Grade is fail if less than 60 points is achieved from exercises and/or exercises are very insufficient or of very poor quality.

Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1-2)

Grade is satisfactory (1-2) if 60 - 71 points is achieved and exercises are done in time. Exercises may contain minor (quality) issues.

Assessment criteria, good (3-4)

Grade is good (3-4) if 72 - 107 points is achieved, exercises are done in time and they are well done.

Assessment criteria, excellent (5)

Grade is excellent (5) if at least 108 points is achieved, exercises are done in time and the quality is excellent.
