Oppimateriaalit

The group tasks are based on scientific articles/patents and lecture materials provided in Optima. The individual task is based on the oral reports of the other groups, notes made in class, and in complementary information retrieval.

Opetusmenetelmät

Team-based learning in groups (same groups in the both parts of the course) resolving a Group Task, Individual tasks to complement Group Tasks and summarise the group tasks of the other groups. Group presentation both for substance and communication skills, Task reports & presentations in English, Multiple Choice Exam one of the tasks, which is directly related to the Group and Individual Tasks.

Pedagogiset toimintatavat ja kestävä kehitys

Team-based learning in student groups (if international students, they are placed in multinational groups) by resolving tasks, Real company examples in background materials. Information retrieval from journal and patent databases has a central role.

2-4 students may conduct the course by working in the the research group (New Materials and processes). This type of the implementation has to be agreed separate with the instructors. Generally it consists of lab work related to real research projects, reporting and appending the needed theory in the reports.

Toteutuksen valinnaiset suoritustavat

In the research work implementation of the whole module (15 ECTS), a separate learning agreement is signed, and separate instructions are provided for reporting and integration of theory into the reports.The reporting consists of weekly follow-up meetings and theory discussion, an individual report and 2-3 group reports, 1-2 intermediate group reports in November and/or December, and the final group report in January 2022. 1-2 intermediate group report(s) will be combined into the final report. In December, each participant will also return an individual report on the theory part of the course. The absolute final deadline for the final report is 31 January 2022, and there is no possibility to raise the grade or to return the report later. However, if you want feedback on your report before the deadline, you have to return you report 15 January 2022 at the latest, and you will get within 10 days some comment to correct or improve the report.

Opiskelijan ajankäyttö ja kuormitus

Preliminary plan:
The evaluation is based on 5 tasks : Cleanroom Technology part include 2 Group Tasks or Individual Tasks and Biotechnological Production 2 tasks (1 Group Task & 1 Individual Task / part) = 4 tasks altogether. The 5th task is a Multiple Choice Exam (MCE) covering boths parts of the course.
