Introduction
A course of this type is included in all computer science programmes of a certain scope. This is an important type of mathematics that is used in several computer disciplines. It is also referred to as computer mathematics. The concepts and techniques the students learn in this course will help to enhance their programming skills and their understanding of many computer technology problems.
Required preliminary courses
No requirements over and above the admission requirements.
Learning outcomes
After completing the course, the student is expected to have achieved the following learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge, skills and general competence:
Knowledge
The student is capable of:
- defining and explaining relevant concepts in logics, set theory, functions, number theory, matrix calculation, proof techniques, sequences and series, combinatorics, relations, graph theory and Boolean algebra
- explaining relevant formulas and rules of arithmetic
Skills
The student is capable of:
- solving course-specific but also general and complex problems with the help of theory, formulas, statements, rules of arithmetic and techniques taught on the course
- applying concepts and techniques from the course to relevant computer disciplines
General competence
The student is capable of:
- informing programmers and others about issues that benefit from the use of discrete mathematics concepts and techniques
Teaching and learning methods
Lectures and individual exercises. The exercises are based on the students’ own work, supervised by the lecturer and/or a student assistant.
Course requirements
The following coursework is compulsory and must be approved before the student can sit the exam:
- 3 compulsory written assignments to be solved in groups of 2 - 4 people. Time spent per assignment will vary between 5 - 15 hours depending on the participants' knowledge and professional prerequisites.
Assessment
The Entrepreneurship and innovation in design, arts and crafts course provides a broad theoretical and practical understanding of entrepreneurship and innovation in teaching and learning processes. The course includes innovation, business understanding, creativity and ability to act. The course is designed for collaboration with external partners from the public sector, education and business. The course is connected to professional conduct and education-practice training.
The course is designed to accomodate international exchange.
Permitted exam materials and equipment
Admission to the program.
Grading scale
After completing the course, the student is expected to have achieved the following learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge, skills and competence:
Knowledge
The student has knowledge of:
- entrepreneurship and innovation education in the field of design, arts and crafts
- key concepts, processes and methods related to entrepreneurship and innovation
- sustainability and ethical issues concerning entrepreneurship and innovation
- relevant regulations and framework conditions for establishing a business
Skills
The student can:
- plan, organize and carry out teaching in entrepreneurship and innovation
- apply and disseminate knowledge about innovation and entrepreneurship processes
- apply and guide relevant methods and digital tools for creative work
- identify and analyze information that is relevant for the implementation of entrepreneurship and innovation projects, define and carry out a limited development work within the subject area.
General competence
The student can:
- work in interdisciplinary teams, build networks and collaborate with external partners
- evaluate and update the competence for teaching entrepreneurship and innovation
- communicate opportunities for education- and career choices through entrepreneurship and innovation education
- apply relevant forms of communication
Examiners
The course is organized as problem-based learning through project work in groups of 4-5 students. The groups develop independent solutions and results through participation in the teaching, work with syllabus literature, their own information gathering, problem analysis and project work. An exploratory working method is expected .
Students are introduced to theory and methods that are relevant to the learning objectives in the course, prepareing and supporting active work in problem-based learning:
- lectures and project supervision
- participation in relevant, external events that are documented in the project report
- presentations
- folder submissions
The expected work includes knowledge sharing, inclusive decision-making processes, academic discussions and mutual critical feedback.
Active participation in the group work is expected. The groups must set up and sign a group contract and cooperate on the basis of this. The groups must keep a project log and document participation from all group members throughout the course.
