Teaching method

Theoretical-practical classes, of two hours per week, where the syllabus is exposed, and exercises are carried out.

Group work max. 5 students, which includes research and preparation of a comparative article on 4 previously chosen articles.

Practical classes in the laboratory, two hours a week, where students perform, in groups of max. 3 students, a set of works/projects with an emphasis on the analysis and design of the system and its implementation in an ESP32 device. Reports on two of these works and respective presentations/discussions.

Evaluation method

Theoretical-practical (TP) assessment component, with asynchronous assessment, has a weight of 40% in the final grade and a minimum grade of 9.5 values, with the obligation to have a grade greater than 0 (zero) in all assessment elements .

This component has the following evaluation elements:

• Assessment element "group article" (to be delivered in PDF) – this assessment element (TPAG) is worth 60% of the theoretical component;

• Assessment element "Individual presentation of the group''s article" (to be delivered in a 3-minute video format) – this assessment element (TPA) is worth 25% of the theoretical component;

• Assessment element "review of a group article" (to be delivered in PDF) – this assessment element (TPR) is worth 25% of the theoretical component.

Practical assessment component (P), with laboratory or project-type assessment, carried out in groups of 3 students (max. and advised), has a weight of 60% in the final grade and a minimum classification of 9.5 values, with mandatory to have a grade greater than 0 (zero) in all assessment elements.

This component has the following evaluation elements:

• Assessment element "1st practical assessment assignment" (P1, 33% of the practical component), to be discussed in person (if possible) on a date to be arranged;

• Assessment element "2nd practical assessment assignment" (P2, 33% of the practical component), to be discussed in person (if possible) on a date to be arranged.

• Assessment element "3rd practical assessment work" (P3, 33% of the practical component), to be discussed in person (if possible) on a date to be arranged.

The works will be delivered in digital format through the course page on Moodle, except the 2nd work that will be submitted in Git.

The classification obtained, in the previous year, for the theoretical component or for the practical component of the evaluation is valid, provided that with a grade higher than 9.5.

All evaluation components will be rounded to two decimal places, the result being calculated based on the weighted average according to the indicated weights.

Formulas:

• TP = TPAGx0.50 + TPAx0.25 + TPAx0.25

• P = P1x0.33 + P2x0.33+P3x0.33

• Final Grade = TPx0.40 + Px0.60
