Constructive Alignment | In CA the connection between the desired outcomes, the form of exam, and the content has to be defined: After completing the module, students will have a deeper understanding of processes and special conditions tied to the development of open source technologies. They will know to what extent open source companies differ from non-open source companies and have gained knowledge of different forms of licenses and patents. They will have transformed a technical, artistic, social or economic idea into a project. The result of this project is either a product or service or a prototype or MVP (minimal valuable product) leading up to a hypothetical business model. The decisive steps, specifications and guidelines are documented in a way that is comprehensible to others. To verify the competencies, portfolios are created consisting of intermediate stages of the work on the project including documentation, reflective essays on the learning and cognitive processes and the final product. The results will be presented. The theoretical foundations are made available in the form of face-to-face and/or online lectures and as materials for self-study. Methodological foundations are laid in the form of individual or group work. The concrete work on the projects is done in supervised group work, mainly in laboratories and workshops. Cooperation with the Open Source scene is explicitly desired. |
