Location and time

Follow the TAMK intranet and course schedule from there. There will be also weekly schedule in the course Moodle.

Exam schedules

No final exam. The assessment is based on personal projects, the result of the projects and the documentation of the results and the implementation. Also keeping in the schedules is one part of the assessment.
More detailed instructions will be given in the practical work instructions.

Assessment methods and criteria

The final grade is based on personal projects which are checked against timetable, demands, documentation and the quality of the solution. Documentation details can be found from the assignment sections. Using the Onedrive cloud is also one part of the documentation. The details and the grading of the projects will be published in the first lectures. The details of the grading can be found also from course Moodle (Tabula).

Assessment scale

0-5

Teaching methods

The course will be hold in online learning. Examples, demonstrations and also workshop using the Zoom environment). Explanatory and instructive videos in Moodle(Tabula) environment.

Learning materials

Most of material is in the explanatory videos mainly published in Youtube. Some of those videos are public and some are hidden. There is also some additional material in the course Moodle(Tabula). That is in the form of additional videos, internet links, example files and links to written material.

Student workload

Total 80 hours. Self-promoted working is about 50-56 hours. Demonstrations, workshops, coaching and contact online lessons alltogether is about 24-30 hours.

Content scheduling

TAMK network and computer services
Office365 environment
Microsoft (MS) Excel
MS Word
MS PowerPoint
Functional programming

Completion alternatives

Contact the course lecture.

One possible way could be to produce a set of self made and self designed video material concerning Office 365 environment. After that a suitable environmental engineering / energy engineering / water issues / mathematics (physics, chemistry) application problem could be solved and documented with enough examples and details.

No private (personal) guidance is given in this kind of way.

Further information

Follow the course Moodle.
