M1GMT1200 Mathematics 1, Subject 2 Course description

Knowledge

The student has knowledge of

• what defines an organization's need for buildings, areas, workplaces and technical infrastructure
• development of buildings, areas and workplaces
• different types of buildings, surface materials and buildings' most important technical systems
• building information models (BIM) and how to cooperate with builders, architects and engineers to facilitate focused and cost efficient sustainable management, operations, maintenance and development (MOMD), which is beneficial to the indoor environment of buildings, urban areas and technical infrastructure
• condition analyses, condition codes, life-cycle analyses and calculation of life cycle costs (LCC)
• the terms for operational friendly solutions in buildings including considerations concerning indoor climate and cleaning
• space planning software, universal design and ergonomics in the workplace
• sustainability, environmental certification and environmental management
• MOM software and systems for central control of operations in buildings
• laws, regulations and standards that form the terms for use, management, operation, maintenance

Skills

The student is capable of

• applying academic knowledge of the field to plan and carrying out cost efficient and sustainable land-use allocation and operation in buildings
• applying academic knowledge to create functional and integrated areas
• applying his/her academic knowledge of the field to organize and manage FM services for sustainable management, operation, maintenance and development (MOMD), and service (S) for the users in line with the organization's goals and strategies (MOMDS)
• applying his/her academic knowledge to assess the economic and environmental consequences of selected solutions in buildings

General competence

The student is capable of

• disseminating important subject matter that supports different recommendations and choices in buildings and the use of buildings
• seeing the subject in a bigger societal perspective
• critically reflecting on his/her own practice in management, operation, maintenance and development
• exchanging points of view and experience with other specialists/experts about buildings and the use of buildings, and has the ability to critically reflect and thereby contribute to developing good practice

A variety of teaching methods will be used, such as lectures, plenary discussions, practical exercises, group work and study trips. The students are expected to work on the practical exercises, take part in discussions and participate in study trips.

I Emne 2 arbeides det med sentrale didaktiske og faglige sider ved matematikkundervisning på trinn 1-7, med spesiell vekt på utforskning av sammenhenger mellom tall, og hvordan generalisering av egenskaper ved tall og samvariasjon av størrelser legger til rette for algebraisk tenking. Grunnleggende begrepsmessig forståelse av brøk behandles grundig. I tillegg vil det arbeides med bevis og argumentasjon og vurdering og diagnostisk undervisning.

A draft of the group portfolio assignment will be presented and discussed in the plenary sessions. Attendance is compulsory at fellow students' presentations. The required coursework must be approved in order for the student to take the exam. If required coursework is not approved, a revised and improved version must be submitted by the deadline stipulated by the lecturer.

A portfolio exam with an individual written assignment of 8-10 pages/3,200-4,000 words is weighted 60%, and a written assignment by groups of 3-5 students, of 12-15 pages/4,800-6,000 words is weighted 40%.

Both parts of the portfolio must be awarded a separate grade of A-E for the student to pass the exam. If the student receives an F in one part of the exam, this part of the exam must be retaken. There can be up to five students in the group.

To deleksamener:

• Deleksamen 1: Hjemmeeksamen i gruppe. Omfang: tilsvarende 10 sider. Varighet: tre dager.
• Deleksamen 2: Nasjonal deleksamen i matematikk (det vil utvikles en nasjonal emneplan). Varighet: fire timer.

Ved gyldig fravær eller ikke bestått resultat, må kun den aktuelle eksamensdelen tas opp igjen.

• Deleksamen 1: Ny/utsatt eksamen arrangeres som ved ordinær eksamen. Ved ny/utsatt eksamen kan deleksamen 1 gjennomføres individuelt.
• Deleksamen 2: Se retningslinjer for Nasjonal deleksamen i matematikk.

A grade scale with grades from A to E for pass and F for fail is used.

Each answer paper is assessed by an external and an internal examiner.
