Module Aims, Learning Outcomes and Indicative Contents

أهداف المادة الدراسية ونتائج التعلم والمحتويات الإرشادية

 Module Objectives

أهداف المادة الدراسية

This module aims to impart an understanding of the underpinning theoretical principles and practical calculation methods for analysis of 100% renewable energy systems and an appreciation of how these systems are integrated in practical applications. Emphasis is on the heat transfers and thermodynamic cycles that underpin whole system clean energy storage, conversion and delivery processes.

Module Learning Outcomes

Learning and Teaching Strategies

استراتيجيات التعلم والتعليم

Strategies

All learning starts from a basis of previous experience and develop in a purposeful fashion according to the usefulness or value which the new ways of dealing with the world have for each student. The field of thermodynamic learning today emphasizes the Exploration of students’ prior ideas and expectations, Another strategy can also be used Challenging such as brainstorming, prediction and written response to elicit the students’ prior knowledge. These techniques helped make our lessons more interesting, and the students seemed to enjoy the learning process. An alternative strategy is to Solve the assignments assigned to the student and participate in them in the classroom

Note: Marks Decimal places above or below 0.5 will be rounded to the higher or lower full mark (for example a mark of 54.5 will be rounded to 55, whereas a mark of 54.4 will be rounded to 54. The University has a policy NOT to condone "near-pass fails" so the only adjustment to marks awarded by the original marker(s) will be the automatic rounding outlined above.
