Derived from: Flipped classroom in PhD course Microsensors

Description:

2 week intensive PhD course with around 20 international PhD students interested in using microsensors in their research. The course contains theory and practical exercises.

Intended Learning Outcomes:

Students should know the basic principles of oprical microsensors and planar sensors
Students should be able to define the main concepts and components of a sensor
Students will be able to use sensors in a practical setting
Students should be able to reflect and abstract from shown methods and concepts to their own research and figure out how to implement sensor technology
Students should be able to analyse the benefits and drawbacks of a particular sensors for a given problem

	Resources		Tasks		Supports
	Out of class
	Webcasts, Videos and papers made available online on blackboard (or alike)	→	Get needed basic information on sensor technologies ↓	←	Possibility to comment online and discuss in the forum

	In class
←	Short presentations and notes	←	Define the main concepts and components of a sensor ↓	←	Short lectures on certain difficult topics Exchange with peers and teacher in discussion (e.g. jig-saw)
	Lab equipment and instructions in form of notes and videos	→	Students can use sensors in the lab ↓	←	Teacher will supervise and correct
	Literature on different topic available equipment and samples	→	Students will find a project that relates sensors to their research and perform it ↓	←	guidance by the teachers
→	Notes and routines for data handling	←	analyse the data obtained in the project and present it to peers ↓	←	instructions on data analysis by teacher
	After course
	Course material generated notes	→	Reflect on how sensors can be used back home in their research	←	Teachers are available to answer questions online and can provide special information (e.g. equipment lists)
