Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The teaching methods adopted in the unit will be based on the top-down analysis of several cases that provides motivating for learning the subjects. The learning is based on guided reading, laboratory works developed with the aid of computational tools, a final project and bibliographic research. The unit is organized into two types of classes: Theoretical classes: Lectures on subject exposition, and study-discussion-resolution of cases (problems). Practical classes: Lectures of laboratory character where students perform laboratory works and a final project. Calculation of final grade: TAS - Analysis and Synthesis Work (15%) Ex - Three exercises (20%) PLC programming exercises series. Pj - Industrial process automation project (50%). Industrial process automation project(s) with presentation and final discussion. Minimum approval grade for the project component is 10 (ten) values. Pr - Exam (15%)
Final classification, CF: CF = TAS + Ex + Pj + Pr
