  Learning outcomes of the course

  As a rule, students write their final thesis during their fourth year of studies. Students should choose their thesis topic as early as possible, during their internship completed in the autumn of their fourth year of studies at the latest.
  
  Students do their thesis as an independent project in design, development, or as a survey. The thesis may also be a part of a more extensive research or development project. The purpose of the thesis is to give students an opportunity to show their competence in independently utilising theoretical information to solve a practical problem.
  
  With few exceptions, students usually do their thesis for an enterprise. This gives students an excellent opportunity to pave their way into the working world and the services of the enterprise for which they have written their thesis.

  Students will learn how to evaluate different user interfaces and how to identify user groups. They will also learn how to design a user interface according to human-centred design processes and the principles of the sustainable development, and how to create a user interface using SCADA software.

  Prerequisites and co-requisites

  No previous studies are required.

  Course contents

  Evaluating user interfaces, identifying users, designing user interfaces, visually designing user interfaces, cognition and SCADA software. The course introduces the user interface development method that is independent of the hardware supplier.

  Assessment criteria

  Satisfactory

  The student knows and commands the basic structure of the user interfaces in the one to be been satisfied with numbers and can tell its opinion on the function of the user interface. Furthermore, he can make the user interface according to the basic rules.

  Good

  The student knows well the basic concepts which are related to the user interface, the rules and the structure of the functioning user interface. He can create the user interface to the different applications using known programming tools.

  Excellent

  The student knows the rules which are well used in the planning of the user interface and can make user interfaces to the different applications and environments which are in accordance with the rules. Furthermore, he is able to adapt in the solving of questions and problems from many sides of different types the matters learned by him.

  Further information

  The aim of the course is to develop symbolic and intuitive user interfaces, in which case the use of language translations would be as minimal as possible.

  Assessment criteria

  Satisfactory

  There are lots of major errors in the student's written expression and problems with the fluency of text. Their text is simple but coherent and intelligible. There are lots of mistakes and mispronunciations in the student's oral expression and the pronunciation differs from that of the target language. Despite the problems, the message is mainly intelligible. If the text is read directly from written notes or slides, the maximum grade is 1 to 2. The students masters the basic vocabulary and key grammatical structures in a limited way.

  Good

  There are some minor errors in the student's written expression, but the message is still conveyed without problems. Their text is fluent and consistent, as well as written using basic structures correctly. There are some mispronunciations and grammatical errors and in the student's oral expression, but they do not disturb the conveying of the message. Good, fluent basic language skills, presented relatively spontaneously, yet based to some extent on notes. Hesitation slows down the student's speech. The students masters the basic vocabulary and field-specific vocabulary quite well. The student uses key grammatical structures quite faultlessly.

  Excellent

  The student's written expression is faultless, very fluent, and the student pays attention to stylistic matters required by professional-life communication situations. They also use complex syntactic structures in their text. There are no mistakes in oral expression; the student's pronunciation is authentic and their speed of speech is appropriate. Overall, their speech is spontaneous, fluent narration, which the listener can easily follow. The student reacts in an adequate way in interactive situations. The students masters a large vocabulary and uses grammatical structures fluently and in a varied way.
