Requisites: Pre-requisite: Knowledge of Electronic Devices and Circuits; and Control Measurement & Instrumentation (to university 2nd year level) AND AND Pre-requisite: Module code: ELE08100 and MEC08106 Module title: Electronic Devices and Circuits; Control Measurement & Instrumentation. Examples of equivalent learning:Electronic Devices and Circuits and Control Measurement & Instrumentation at a level equivalent to SCQF level 8
Description of module content:

This module enhances understanding of practical applications of devices and software in a variety of disciplines: Analogue and Digital Electronics; Control; Communications, Computing and Electrical Engineering. This module involves the design, building and testing of a series of electronic circuits and their associated computer support. These circuits will then be incorporated in a complete integrated control scheme.
Learning Outcomes for module:

Upon completion of this module you will be able to

LO1: Apply engineering concepts to design and make" projects involving a variety of electrical and computer disciplines.

LO2: Maintain and make effective use of a reflective logbook.

LO3: Communicate aspects of the module experience write reports and give presentations at SCQF level 9 to peers and staff.

Assessment
Type of Assessment Weighting % LOs covered Week due Length in Hours/Words Description
Learning Log 40 2 Week 13 HOURS= 1500 words In this logbook report, students report their daily activities as part of individual or team work. They apply an integrated or systems approach to the solution of complex problems [M6]. For excellent flow of their work, they evaluate the technical aspect, environmental and societal impact of solutions to complex problems (to include the entire life-cycle of a product or process) and minimise adverse impacts [M7]. While preparing the report as a team or individual, adopt an inclusive approach to engineering practice and recognise the responsibilities, benefits and importance of supporting equality, diversity and inclusion [M11].
Report 20 1~3 Week 13 , WORDS= 3000 words As a part of the group project, the student prepared an individual report. While preparing, the students use practical laboratory and workshop skills to investigate complex problems [M12]. They apply an integrated or systems approach to the solution of complex problems [M6]. They select and apply appropriate computational and analytical techniques to model complex problems, discussing the limitations of the techniques employed [M3]. The students communicate effectively on complex engineering matters with technical and non-technical audiences, evaluating the effectiveness of the methods used [M17].
Poster 20 3 Week 13 , WORDS= 4 slides The student prepared four individual 4 slides as a poster. In the slides they included the electronics circuit design, LabvieW/c program details and results. While preparing, the students use practical laboratory and workshop skills to investigate complex problems [M12]. They select and apply appropriate computational and analytical techniques to model complex problems, discussing the limitations of the techniques employed [M3]. The students communicate effectively on complex engineering matters with technical and non-technical audiences, evaluating the effectiveness of the methods used [M17].
Oral Presentation 20 1~3 Week 13 HOURS= 30 min For oral presentation, the students demonstrated their practical skills gained from practical laboratory and workshop skills to investigate complex problems [M12]. They communicate effectively on complex engineering matters with technical and non-technical audiences, evaluating the effectiveness of the methods used [M17]. The presentation functions effectively as an individual and as a member or leader of a team, and the teaching teams evaluate the effectiveness of their own and team performance [M16].
