Recommended prerequisite for participation in
the module
The project builds on knowledge obtained in the P0 project module:
Project in Conceptual design of an ICT application (Projekt i
konceptuelt design af en IKT-applikation).
Content, progress and pedagogy of the
module
To provide the student with practical experience defining a
project within the area of IT, communication and new media, which
includes use of object-oriented programming, to implement the
project by working in groups and to document the solution in a
project report. |
Learning objectives
Knowledge

technologies in order to identify relevant contextual perspectives
of a given technology
- Must have knowledge about project management in a long-term
problem based project (in this case 2-3 months)
- Must have knowledge of methodological consideration to describe
the theoretical and empirical foundation of the project
- Must have knowledge about how an object oriented programming
language can be used to solve a specific problem
- Must have knowledge about commonly occurring data structures
and algorithms
- Must have knowledge about the implementation and use of
commonly occurring data structures and abstract data
types

Skills
- Must be able to analyse individual as well as organisational
learning processes by scientifically recognised concepts and
methods
- Must be able to organise and manage a longer-term project
considering group and supervisor collaboration
- Must be able to structure and communicate the reflections and
results of the problem based project work; orally, graphically and
in writing
- Must be able to identify and define a problem suitable for a
project involving object-oriented programming
- Must be able to use an object-oriented programming language and
associated class library to implement parts of programs and small
programs in order to solve a specific problem
- Must be able to plan and perform systematic test of the
programme applied
- Must be able to discuss/assess the quality of the solution in a
wider context
|
Competences
- Must be able to take responsibility of one’s own learning
during a longer-termed project period and be able to generalise the
gained experiences
- Must have competencies in using object oriented programming in
solving programming tasks, especially programming tasks related to
communication and new media
- Must have competences in documentation and discussion of the
wider market related implications of a real life
application
|
Type of instruction
Students will do their project work in groups. The groups will
receive instruction and feedback from the teacher. Students have to
prepare a written P1 process analysis. Students will get support to
identify relevant contextual perspectives by consultancy, a group
meeting, and commenting on papers and presentation at the status
seminar.
