The student
1. improves his life management and cognitive control skills.
2. improves his group work and communication skills.
3. improves in identifying his strengths and needs for development and setting his own goals.

Content (course unit)

Self-Leadership skills mean various activities that aim to improve and maintain one’s well-being at work and in life. They could include e.g. tools for time and stress management as well as exercises to improve awareness of one’s strengths, needs, values, attitudes, thoughts and feelings.

The modern work culture that underlines efficiency and quantity over quality easily steers people towards instant needs satisfaction instead of focusing on the good quality of life. This might lead people into workaholism and exhaustion. Good self-leadership skills help to protect people’s well-being both as a student and later in the working life.

Communication skills are basic skills that can develop throughout life. The importance of good communication skills in working life is constantly growing. A person with good communication skills is able to recognize and appreciate different personality types and is capable of considering other people’s feelings and opinions as well as negotiating solutions in conflicts. Communication skills are needed not only in face-to-face situations but also in writing. Good communication skills improve working atmosphere, efficiency and well-being of the workers.

Objectives (course unit)

The aim of the course is for students to work in a project group and learn intelligent system blocks from the sensor to the interface to build a smart system.

Content (course unit)

During the course, students in the project group learn intelligent system blocks from the sensor via electronics to the interface to build the system itself.

During the course, students implement an intelligent system that measures real-world phenomena with sensors. From the sensors, the information is exported through the telecommunication network and processors up to the user interface. The blocks in the system are reviewed in theory and built in practice.

In addition, the student will learn about the effect of frequency on electrical circuits, capacitance, inductance and typical electronics components in theory and practice.

Includes mathematics aprox. 2 ECTS: Boolean algebra, logical operators, truth tables, concept of a function. Fysics as a part of professional subject matter content.

Further information (course unit)

Engineering mathematics and physics have been integrated into the course.

Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1-2) (course unit)

Student:
- recognizes intelligent system blocks of from sensor electronics to software
- Understanding how the intelligent system works and basics of Boolean algebra
- is able to control ready-to-use library functions in programming
- knows different ways of measuring, programming methods and ways of building a telecommunication network, but can't justify their choices
- Performs tasks in a pre-learned way
- works in a group and reviews and evaluates things from its own perspective

Assessment criteria, good (3-4) (course unit)

Student:
- Understand smart system blocks
-can interpret the measurement results
-is able to build an intelligent system
-can use ready-made library functions to transfer the sensor data in the system from the sensor through the processor to the server
-has the ability to interpret measurement results, and mainly controls impedance calculations
-can work in a group and give and receive feedback actively and constructively
