Assessment Methods and Criteria (valid 01.08.2018-31.07.2020): 

Agreed separately.

Elaboration of the evaluation criteria and methods, and acquainting students with the evaluation (applies in this implementation): 

The grading of the course is based on weekly assignments (1/3 of the grade) and an essay based on a project (2/3 of the grade). There will be no exam.

Weekly Assignments

There will be 3 weekly assignments based on lectures. Each assignment will be graded max. ­20 points. The minimum requirement to pass is two returned assignments with 8 points or more each.

Project

Students are expected to complete a small project on a given topic or a topic of their choosing and confirmed by the instructor. Projects will be performed in teams of two students.

Possible topics can include:

  1. Case studies of enabling technologies (ICT tools / platforms / methods) intended for industrial internet applications.
  2. Case studies describing the application of industrial internet in a concrete company / industry case.
  3. Students can also choose their own topic within their own area of expertise or interest.

Topic confirmations(max 1 A4 page) should be submitted electronically to MyCourses by March 13. After confirmation, a mid-term report (3-5 pages) describing the progress of the work is expected by March 27. The final deliverables of the project should be submitted by April 17. The expected final deliverables consist of an essay (max 15 pages) and a slide presentation (max 4 slides) summarizing the key findings of the study. 

Seminar on project results (not mandatory)

After the course proper, a seminar will be organized on April 24 on the project results where teams who wish so can present their 4-slide summaries in a 7-minute presentation followed by short discussion. This is not a mandatory requirement for the course, merely an opportunity to share what you have learned from the project!
