Winter semester 2023-2024

The target group of the course are Bachelor students of Media Technology and Computer Science as well as Master students of Media Business. The course will be offered from winter semester 2021/2022 as a substitute for Usability Engineering 1. The goal of the course is to convey the basics of user-centered development of interactive systems. In this context, basic principles of usability engineering and quality of experience will be taught. In addition to the weekly lectures there will be accompanying seminars in the form of Moodle quizzes and exercises.

The course is a face-to-face course supplemented by online Moodle quizzes. Further details and teaching materials are available in the accompanying Moodle course WiSe23-24 User-Centric Engineering 1: https://moodle.tu-ilmenau.de/course/view.php?id=69

Registration for the Moodle course is mandatory for all participating students.

The target group of the course is the fifth semester undergraduate students of Media Technology. The course is offered in cooperation with the Electronic Media Technology Group and the Audiovisual Technology Group. The goal of the course is to teach the basics of scientific writing and presentation in preparation for the bachelor thesis. Topics are chosen at the beginning of the semester from a list of specific media technology topics. Throughout the course, there will be regular consultations and presentations, as well as a basic course on scientific work in the University Library.

The course is an attendance course. Further details and teaching materials are available in the accompanying Moodle course of the Hauptseminar Medientechnologie FG AVT/NAM/EMT FhG IDMT: https://moodle.tu-ilmenau.de/course/view.php?id=532

Even today, a large number of tasks cannot be fully automated. In addition to complex and creative activities, these tasks include subjective evaluations and, in some cases, relatively simple classification tasks. Crowdsourcing, or human-based computation, is often used to efficiently solve small tasks that cannot be solved automatically.
This course teaches the basics of crowdsourcing and human-based computation, in particular how to decompose existing tasks so that they can be efficiently distributed and processed by humans. The course covers topics such as typical quality assurance mechanisms, the use of extrinsic and intrinsic motivation, and the technical implementation of tasks. 

The course is a face-to-face course supplemented by online content available in Moodle. Further details and teaching materials are available in the accompanying WiSe22 Crowdsourcing and Human-Based Computing Moodle course: https://moodle.tu-ilmenau.de/course/view.php?id=68

The goal of the Scientific Working is to learn best practices for scholarly writing and presentation. The course also provides insight into the services of the local university library. 

The Scientific Working will take place as an online course in the winter semester 2023/2024. All details about the course and working materials are available in the Scientific Working Moodle course: https://moodle.tu-ilmenau.de/course/view.php?id=71

The goal of the Raspberry Pi Project is to learn how to plan, organize, and solve tasks in a small project group. Students will use a Raspberry Pi to solve pre-defined tasks that combine mechanics, electrical engineering, computer science, and media technology. There will be tutorials on GIT, Python and Linux to support the students, as well as regular consultations. 

The Raspberry Pi Project will take place online in the winter semester 2023/2024. All details about the course and working materials are available in the Raspberry Pi Moodle course: https://moodle.tu-ilmenau.de/course/view.php?id=72
