ENG1002 Engineering design: Cleaner, safer, smarter

Teaching and learning method
In this unit, formal contact hours consist of workshops and practice classes. Learning in the unit is through multiple methods consisting of:

• Pre-workshop reading with online quiz assessment
• Workshop and practical class engagement
• Completion of worksheet booklets
• Completion of two major projects
• Completing problem sheets throughout the semester

Practical class allocation
There are 3-hours of practice classes scheduled each week, commencing in Week 1. Students must enrol in one practice class only using Allocate Plus. Students not allocated to a particular practice class will not be accepted into that session without the written consent of the unit coordinator. Once a particular session is full, no more students will be accepted unless evidence is shown that timetabling means that is the only session possible.

Teaching approach
In a typical week, students are expected to:

• Read selected unit materials and watch online videos prior to attending workshops. This will be assessed in a weekly pre-workshop online quiz in Moodle.
• Attend workshops that focus on the application of the weekly discipline-specific topics and examples. Engagement in workshops will be assessed via the use of audience response systems.
• Perform self-study to work their way through the problem sheets with included solutions.
• Complete worksheet booklets to apply weekly learning, assessed using Moodle.
• Engage in practical classes, which will include a mix of activities that:
  - teach and apply teamwork, information literacy and writing skills
  - apply and consolidate discipline-specific knowledge gained in workshops in hands-on experiments
• Work in teams on completing the two major projects for the unit.
