Credits
5 op
Objectives
Student
- evaluates the packaging solution and the product as a whole
- can integrate the sustainability into design considering the whole value chain
- knows and understands LCA and its possibilities and limitations
- knows possibilities and options for processes modernization towards circular economy
Content
- circular design principles of the packaging solution according to the circular economy
-Introduction to LCA calculation and its utilization as a tool
-production processes and circular economy planning
Key questions:
- What is the significance of comprehensive understanding of the packaging solution and the product?
-What should be considered when designing according to circular economy principles?
-What are the possibilities and limitations of LCA calculation?
-What kind of methods there are to develop the production process in accordance with the CE principles?
Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1-2)
- recognizes the circular economy goals in the design of the packaging solution, but does not know how to justify his choices
- knows the concept and goals of LCA calculation
- can name and recognize previously learned methods from the modernization of production processes to the circular economy
Assessment criteria, good (3-4)
- knows the principles of circular design and presents justified solution options, gives and receives feedback actively
- can observe the packaging solution and the product as a whole and from the perspective of different parties, acts responsibly in the community
- considers the entire value chain in design/planning to achieve the sustainable development goals and to solve problems
Assessment criteria, excellent (5)
- comprehensively understands the impacts of the circular economy in packaging solution design and processes in development
- develops and critically evaluates new packaging solutions and brings one's expertise to the use of the team
- analyzes packaging solutions considering the sustainable development and CE principles
- critically evaluates the possibilities and limitations of both the measures taken and the LCA calculation when considering packaging solutions
