Indicazioni metodologiche

Il corso si svolge in modo frontale tradizionale, talvolta con l'ausilio di slide/filmati/connessioni web. Possono essere inseriti seminari tenuti da esperti. Il materiale didattico a supporto del corso è postato sul portale e-learnng.  Quando possibile vengono organizzate visite presso stabilimenti industriali. L'interazione con lo studente avviene anche al di fuori della lezione mediante ricevimenti settimanali e posta elettronica. Il ricevimento settimanale del docente è concordato all'inizio del corso in base all'orario delle lezioni.

Teaching methods

 

The course takes place in a traditional frontal way, sometimes with the help of slides / videos / web connections. Seminars held by experts can be included. The teaching material supporting the course is posted on the e-learnng portal. Whenever possible, visits to industrial plants are organized. The interaction with the student also takes place outside the lesson through weekly receptions and e-mails. The weekly reception of the teacher is agreed at the beginning of the course according to the timetable of the lessons.
