Planned learning activities and teaching methods

6 lessons (3 hours) are planned. All of them will be performed by André Blavier.
The course will include three types of activities:

  • Traditional lessons, organized by topics (see above).
  • Lectures by professionals coming from ICT companies (depending on their disponibility).
  • Group works.

Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning)

To be completed.

Recommended or required readings

  • The course will be mainly supported by "Powerpoint" presentations. These presentations must be used as a detailled plan for the course and will have to be completed by information and references given during the lessons.
  • Supports and documentation will be available on Lol@ at least one day before each lesson.  Multimedia contents, reference websites, studies, newsletters, people to follow, ... will also be available on Lol@. The idea is to provide scalable and evolutive supports that students will continue to use in their future professional life. 
  • Students are also invited to follow the Twiter account @unpeudeblabla (a specific hashtag will be used for the course), and the Scoop.it account unpeudeblabla.

Assessment methods and criteria

Group works will be evaluated.
The way the final written exam will be organized will be decided during the course, depending on the global required volume of work.
