Unfortunately, no reservations were found for the realization Biomaterials and tissue engineering 5021168-3002. It's possible that the reservations have not yet been published or that the realization is intended to be completed independently.
Evaluation scale
H-5
Content scheduling
From end of March to end of April. See implementation for more information.
Objective
The participants are able to describe specific features of different biomaterials and their applications including biomaterials prepared from biobased and renewable materials. The participants understand the basic principles of tissue engineering and they are able to describe specific features of biomaterials used in tissue engineering.
Content
Different biomaterials and their applications
Basics of tissue engineering technologies
Completion alternatives
Research work in the research group, contact Mika Jokinen.
Student workload
The implementation is based on Group Tasks and Individual tasks. Reports on the laboratory work/tasks is one of the Group Tasks, and a Multiple Choice Exam (MCE) is one the individual tasks (NB! MCE is only one of the tasks, it cannot be used to replace the other tasks and it is not a course exam that could be separately used to get the whole grade for the course. The question of MCE are though based both on the theory and lab part.). Group Task 1 & 2 reporting also includes an oral discussion or presentation.
Group Task 1 is based on the provided lecture materials (in Optima), Group Task 2 on provided and linked review articles and Individual Task includes questions on the lectures of a visiting professor and on the presentations of the other groups in Group Tasks 1 & 2. The laboratory work/tasks and the related report(s) is assessed separately as one of the Group Tasks. The multiple choice exam questions are related to all the other tasks (in 2020 only to theory part due to Covid-19).
The deadlines for the Group Task 1 & 2 reports are based on the presentation schedule (provided in Optima) and the reports have to be returned before coming to the class for the presentation. Individual Task report deadline is 3.5.2020.
Multiple Choice Exam will be as an E-exam in ViLLE-platform between starting in the end of April 29.4.2020, retakes in May and September 2020.
Evaluation methods and criteria
The assessment is based on the points for the tasks as follows:
Group Task 1: 0-2 p
Group Task 2: 0-2 p
Individual Task: 0-2 p
Laboratory Work and report: 0-4 p
Multiple Choice Exam: 0-6 p
The maximum is 16 points and the preliminary points-grade connection is the following: < 7 p = fail;7-8 p = 1; 9-10 p = 2; 11-12 p = 3; 13-14 p = 4; 15-16 p = 5.
If the reports are not returned on time and if a student is not present in the presentations, there will reduction of 1 p for each case.
