Aim
The course aims to develop students' ability to solve problems independently through a complex calculation/measurement/planning task. At the beginning of the semester, the student chooses one of the announced assignments. In the semester, the student works with the supervisor in an informal schedule. At the end of the semester, students will present a summary presentation and a mini-poster about the project, the tasks completed, and the results achieved.
Learning outcomes
Competences that can be acquired by completing the course
Knowledge
The student knows the efficient way of work organization and work schedule. The student is aware of the steps and tools of task development. Informed on how to process the relevant literature. Knows the appropriate forms of oral and written communication. The student has the IT skills needed to solve the task. Knows how to synthesize and use information learned from different subjects. The student has a basic knowledge of the process and tools of making a presentation. Correctly interprets the results achieved in this topic. The student compares the results of his work with the available literature. The student has the professional knowledge needed to solve the task.
Ability
Able to organize work efficiently and schedule work. Able to formulate tasks, assign tools to achieve each goal. Use the literature and resources of the field of the task. During the task, the student communicates orally and in writing on both professional and organizational issues. Use your existing IT knowledge to solve the problem. Apply the most important terminology and theories of the technical field in the well-defined task assigned to him. Able to give a presentation on the progress of the task and the results. In the summary of the task, the student concludes the usability and importance of the results. The student analyzes the differences and similarities between its own results and the results found in the literature. The student solves the professional task in the assignment correctly.
Attitude
The student constantly monitors his/her work, results and conclusions. Applying the acquired technical knowledge, the student strives to get to know the phenomena and to explain their laws. Open to use IT devices. Strives to implement the principles of energy efficiency and environmental awareness. Improves his/her abilities to solve engineering tasks precisely and error-free. Publishes his/her results according to the professional rules. Expresses his/her views and opinions without insulting others.
Independence and responsibility
During broadening his/her knowledge the student cooperates with the teaching staff. Readily accepts reasonable professional and other criticism. In certain situations, as a member of a team, he/she cooperates with his/her fellow students in solving a task. In possession of his/her knowledge, on the basis of analysis, the student makes a well-founded, responsible decision. The student thinks over the tasks and the problems and solves them independently based on the given sources. The student is committed to the methods and principles of systemich thinking and problem-solving.
Teaching methodology
During the subject, the student works independently on the chosen task under the guidance of the supervisor. This requires effective oral and written communication with your supervisor. Due to the different nature of the tasks, IT tools and techniques are needed for each topic at different depths. At the end of the semester, the student summarizes the most critical steps of the work in a mini-poster. In addition, he gives a 10-minute oral presentation in which the use of modern presentation techniques is essential. As the task schedule is not obligatory, the student, with the help of the supervisor, has to determine the milestones of the work and the internal deadlines that can be attached to them.

General rules
Learning outcomes are assessed on the basis of two mid-year partial performance measurements. First is the presentation, which is the evaluation of the partial performance of the project-type task in the form of a complex, oral assessment of the knowledge, ability and independence and responsibility type competence elements. The presentation must also include a custom-made A3 mini-poster of the completed task. The second sub-performance evaluation is the obligatory prepared appearance at the consultation occasions, which is a simplified way of evaluating the knowledge, ability, attitude, and independence and responsibility type competence elements of the subject.
Assessment methods
Detailed description of mid-term assessments
| Mid-term assessment No. 1 | ||
| Type: | formative assessment, project-based, complex | |
| Number: | 1 | |
| Purpose, description: | Project-type partial performance evaluation examines and assesses the subject's knowledge, ability, and independence and responsibility type competence elements. Students work individually or in groups (depending on the complexity of the topic and task) on the chosen project task under the supervisor's guidance. The supervisor will evaluate the students' knowledge, attitude and readiness on the basis of the work submitted at the consultations, and then on the basis of the work presented at the end of the semester. | |
| Mid-term assessment No. 2 | ||
| Type: | formative assessment, point-in-time personal act | |
| Number: | 1 | |
| Purpose, description: | Project-type partial performance evaluation examines and assesses the subject's knowledge, ability, and independence and responsibility type competence elements—a complex, oral way of evaluating this, in the form of a student presentation. The presentation is due at the end of the semester (at an agreed time and place); focuses on the tasks performed and the quality of the work; in front of fellow students and teachers. The time available is 10 minutes. The student demonstrates his/her proficiency in the topic by answering the questions in 5 minutes after the presentation. An A3 mini-poster about the work should also be presented here. | |
Detailed description of assessments performed during the examination period
The subject does not include assessment during the examination period.
The weight of mid-term assessments in signing or in final grading
| ID | Proportion |
|---|---|
| Mid-term assessment No. 1 | 80 % |
| Mid-term assessment No. 2 | 20 % |
The weight of partial exams in grade
There is no exam belongs to the subject.
Determination of the grade
| Grade | ECTS | The grade expressed in percents |
|---|---|---|
| very good (5) | Excellent [A] | above 90 % |
| very good (5) | Very Good [B] | 85 % - 90 % |
| good (4) | Good [C] | 72 % - 85 % |
| satisfactory (3) | Satisfactory [D] | 65 % - 72 % |
| sufficient (2) | Pass [E] | 50 % - 65 % |

| Can the submitted and accepted partial performance assessments be resubmitted until the end of the replacement period in order to achieve better results? | ||
| yes | ||
| Taking into account the previous result in case of improvement, retaken-improvement: | ||
| out of multiple results, the best one is to be taken into account | ||
| The way of retaking or improving a partial assessment for the first time: | ||
| partial assesment(s) in this group can be improved or repeated once up to the end of the repeat period | ||
| Completion of unfinished laboratory exercises: | ||
| missed laboratory practices must be performed in the repeat period | ||
| Repetition of laboratory exercises that performed incorrectly (eg.: mistake in documentation) | ||
| incorrectly performed laboratory practice (e.g. Incomplete/incorrect report) can be corrected by repeating the practice | ||
