Course only offered in English!
This course is all about doing a programming/IT project. Students have the full semester to work on their project, either alone or, the preferred way, in groups. The course is built around five principles:
1. Do It Yourself (DIY): This course is about practising and requires you to self-study to realise your project. This means studying tutorials, documentations, looking for answers online, etc. This is a huge part of any IT career: Tinkering, debugging, internet searching, watching online videos, looking at stack overflow, consulting docs, . . .
2. Do It Together (DIT): But this course is also about doing things together. During classes, there is time to discuss issues/blocking obstacles, etc. It is also about asking your peers – and helping out if asked. It is also about skill sharing. Ideally in your group you can help each other out to a certain extent.
3. Follow your interest: Think about what you want to do with programming/IT stuff. How can a project during this term help you get there?
4. Challenge yourself: Choose a project where you don’t know yet how to solve it, where there are still unchartered territories.
5. It’s about the process: Following from (4), it’s about learning new things and to grow. Consequently, it’s less about reaching a well-defined goal, but the process towards it. This is also reflected in the grading.
The goal of this course is three-fold: First, some very basics of project planning and management. Second, students should build on their previous term's programming skills and develop a more or less practical, hands-on project. In subsequent years, students will conduct similar projects in the context of the CDC Lab, but in this course, students do not have to work cross-disciplinary - it's all about diving deeper into IT first.
The grade consists of the following:
30 % Project proposal and project plan
30 % Mid-term milestone and presentation
30 % Final implementation and presentation
10 % Project journal
Students from other study programs or other universities are welcome, provided the room capacity permits.
