    Learning methods

    The course is conducted in cooperation with the course "Fastighetsinventering och underhållsplan". The content of the lectures is shown in the weekly planning in Moodle.
    The lectures start in the school, after which sampling and investigations are carried out at the inventory object.
    Students work and report in groups. Attendance is an important part of the course. If a student has to be absent, it is important that he/she informs his/her own group about this.
    Absence may be replaced with supplementary assignments. Some parts of the course have compulsory attendance. This is shown in the weekly planning on Moodle.
    Students must bring the right equipment to the course sessions - both personal equipment and the necessary measuring equipment (the school's).

    Alternative methods of attainment for implementation

    The course is assessed continuously throughout the period.
    Attendance is therefore an important element, as well as activity and initiative. The ability to co-operate and manage a project is also valued. Co-operation in the group and with all course participants is part of the assessment. How well the student seeks and absorbs knowledge in the subject area and professional skills is an important part of the course grade. Reporting is an important part of the course.
    Individual reports are assessed and form one of the bases for the course grade.

    Practical training and working life co-operation

    The inventory is carried out on a site with an external owner.

    Exam dates and retake possibilities

    The compulsory elements of the course are carried out in period 2. Examinations or retake examinations are not organised.

    Timing and attendance

    Period 2, autumn term 2024, Campus Raseborg.
    Only to a very limited extent, and when agreed in advance, you can participate in the teaching at a distance, and then so that you follow the "Rules for teaching at a distance" (available on the Moodle course). The course is largely based on work at the inventory site.

    Internationa connections

    If necessary, the course is realised as an English-friendly course. This means that the groups that students work in must be able to function and communicate in English. Some of the course reporting and documentation may also be done in English.

    Student's schedule and workload

    The student's total time use for completion of the course is estimated to be about 80 hours, of which about 32 hours are scheduled and the rest is work that the student does outside scheduled class time.
