Study programme competences |
| This course provides a unified educational introduction of the central aspects of the flow and deformation of complex fluids (eg., Fluid materials structured at different scales). The course objective is to develop a physical understanding of the rheology of complex fluids by teaching conceptual points important basic data analysis and experimental practices. |

Description |
| Guest lecture / keynote speech |
Oral presentation (using audiovisual material and student interaction) designed to transmit knowledge and encourage learning. Presentations of this type are variously referred to as ‘expository method’, ‘guest lectures’ or ‘keynote speeches’. (The term ‘keynote’ refers only to a type of speech delivered on special occasions, for which the lecture sets the tone or establishes the underlying theme; it is characterised by its distinctive content, structure and purpose, and relies almost exclusively on the spoken word to communicate its ideas.) |
| Laboratory practice |
Practice-based learning method involving activities such as demonstrations, exercises, experiments and research. |
| Supervised projects |
Supervised learning process aimed at helping students to work independently in a range of contexts (academic and professional). Focused primarily on learning ‘how to do things’ and on encouraging students to become responsible for their own learning. |
| Objective test |
Written learning progress test, characterised by pre-determined answers. Well-designed tests offer objectively quantifiable results in relation to student knowledge, capacities, skills, performance, aptitudes, attitude, intelligence, etc. Used for diagnostic, formative and summative assessment. May consist of all or any of the following types of questions: multiple choice, ordering and sequencing, short answer, binary, completion, multiple matching. |
