Description:

GOAL. The goal of this design is to make the most of a 4 hours class that is part of a 10 ECTS course with several guest teachers.

CHALLENGES. The challenges are;
(1) to engage with the students who only meet the lecturer once or twice;
(2) to link a given lecture to the other lectures.

DESIGN. To address these challenges a combination of STREAM (Science and Technology Rethinking education through Educational I Towards Augmentation and Modification), JiTT (Just in Time Teaching) and FC (flipped classroom) is proposed.

In particular, the class is articulated around pre-lecture tasks, that best tailor the actual lecture and post-lecture material and exercises.

Intended Learning Outcomes:

  • Explain the basic concepts of electrochemistry and materials, that are necessary for describing fuel cells
  • Illustrate the operation and underlying theoretical concepts of fuel cellsĀ 
  • Describe practical challenges, performance advantages and disadvantages of fuel cells
