Lectures

There will be three hours per week devoted to lectures in which active learning methodologies such as flipped classroom and cooperative solving of problems will be included at the end of some lessons. In particular, these learning methodologies will be applied at the end of the lessons: 3, 4, 6 and 7.

The active learning methodologies require the students to work on their own before each lecture. Specific material (slides, problems and instructions for the session) will be previously uploaded to the virtual teaching platform (ILIAS). At the end of the session, students should answer an individual online test to measure their level of understanding and learning. This feedback will be very helpful in future sessions to reinforce missing concepts.

Lab sessions  

There will be one two-hour laboratory session every other week during the semester. In these sessions, students have to work in pairs to put the theoretical concepts into practice. Previous work is needed before attending the session. Because the students have to work with industrial equipment such as sensor, actuators (electric motors and pneumatic cylinders) and PLCs, the circuit design and/or programming has to be previously tested with a simulation tool.

Seminar

A real industrial automation process will be presented as case      of study at the end of the course.

Students with special educational needs should contact the Student Attention Service (Servicio de Atención y Ayudas al Estudiante) in order to receive the appropriate academic support

Students with special educational needs should contact the Student Attention Service (Servicio de Atención y Ayudas al Estudiante) in order to receive the appropriate academic support

In order to pass the course, final written exam and practical work have to be independently passed.

A homogeneous score has to be obtained in every course part (automation foundations and control systems). Theoretical and operative course assessment (S2) is the 75% of the final grade. Two cases of study assessment, one for each course part, are included in the former assessment being the 25% of the final written exam grade.

Practical work is assessed by tests and reports. Additionally, students should develop autonomous work reports for every lab session. Work lab attendant is mandatory. The practical work is the 20% of the final grade (S1 y S4).

Furthermore, lecture attendant and active involvement (S3) is also assessed during the sessions (kahoot and flip classes tests). Active involvement is the 5% of the final grade.

Practical work assesses the following competences: CT1, CT2 and CC6.

Learning results for the practical work: 31, 32, 33.

Written exam assesses the following competences: CBR2, CT2, CT4 and CC6. 

Learning results for the written exam: 30, 31, 33.

Institution in charge of data processing: Universidad de Jaén, Campus Las Lagunillas, s/n, 23071 Jaén

Data Protection Delegate: dpo@ujaen.es

Purpose: In accordance with the Universities Law and other national and regional regulations in force, carrying out exams and assessment tests corresponding to the courses students are registered in. In order to avoid frauds while sitting the exam, the exam will be answered using a videoconference system, being able the academic staff of the University of Jaén to compare and contrast the image of the person who is answering the exam with the student's photographic files. Likewise, in order to provide the exam with evidential content for revisions or claims, in accordance with current regulation frameworks, the exam will be recorded and stored.

Legitimacy: compliance with legal obligations (Universities Law) and other national and regional regulations currently in force.

Addressees: service providers who are the owners of the platforms where the exams are carried out and with whom the University of Jaén has signed the corresponding data access contracts.

Storage periods: those established in current in force regulations. In the specific case of exam videoconference recordings, not before the examination records and transcripts are closed or the exam can still be reviewed or challenged.

Rights: you can exercise your right of access, amendment, cancellation, opposition, suppression, limitation and portability by sending a letter to the postal or electronic address indicated above. In the event that you consider that your rights have been violated, you may submit a complaint to the Andalusian Council for Transparency and Data Protection www.ctpdandalucia.es
