Evaluation methods and criteria
In this implementation, students will demonstrate their competence in the following delivery methods (select the ones used in the implementation): - Exam The completion methods are described in more detail in the Moodle learning environment
Objective
Upon completion of the course, student will - be able to utilize the necessary concepts and units that are used in modeling thermal and electrical phenomena - be able to analyze the thermodynamic properties of materials and solid bodies with equilibrium models - be able to interpret thermal and electrical laws as approximate empirical descriptions - is able to analyze electrostatic interactions between electric fields and charged particles - be able to solve even complicated DC circuits - be able to identify electricity production and transmission processes, such as the use of three-phase power, transformer, generator and induction motor operation - be able to evaluate his/her skills on thermal and electrical physics and apply his/her expertise in the subsequent advanced studies
Content
- Basics of thermal physics - Electrostatics - Direct current - Alternating current - Basics of magnetism
Location and time
The schedules for the scheduled online teaching can be found in the timetable at https://lukkarikone.seamk.fi/. Timetables are published for the next six weeks. The first six weeks of autumn are published by Midsummer and the first six weeks of spring by Christmas. Timetables may be subject to changes.
Materials
Teacher´s material.
Teaching methods
Completion of the course requires participation in online teaching. The course is conducted in the Moodle learning environment. The course requires independent work and scheduling. - The course includes joint online meetings. - The recordings of the teaching sessions are available for later viewing in Moodle. - The course also includes independent work online. - The student familiarizes themselves with the theoretical material, completes online assignments / practice project / exam according to the given instructions.
Completion alternatives
This implementation can be completed in the following alternative ways. The completion methods are described in more detail in the Moodle learning environment. - Exam
Student workload
The workload of the study is designed so that one credit corresponds to an average of 27 hours of student work to achieve the learning objectives. The actual time required varies individually, e.g., due to prior knowledge.
