Objective

After completing the course, the student is able to - outline the main concepts and principles of physical programming - apply the basic structures of programming to the production of physical prototypes - program simple programs into physical prototypes

Execution methods

48 hours of lectures and supervised work on the programming of physical interactive prototypes (e.g. Arduino, sensors), 60 hours of independent work.
Teaching profile: face-to-face teaching (LÄHI)

Accomplishment methods

Participation in lectures and satisfactorily completed assignments.

Content

Lectures and assignments, programming.

Assessment criteria, approved/failed

Approved: Performance corresponds to assignment, demonstrates understanding and the ability to analyze and justify. The whole picture has been formed, but there may be shortcomings.

Failed: Performance is narrow, superficial, or poorly matched to assignment. The performance is limited to listing things in isolation, or dealing with things unilaterally. Execution may contain errors or ambiguities.
