  • Purpose and learning objectives

    The purpose of this core area is to develop students' competencies to develop contemporary web applications using programming paradigms and taking advantage of current, standardised protocols and the possibilities of the client/server model. Furthermore, students should develop an understanding of basic design and visual communication. This core area should also enable students to design simple user interfaces using aesthetic and communicative principles.

    Knowledge

    The student has development-based knowledge of: practice, applied theory and methods of development within:
    • relevant Internet and web protocols,
    • data storage, data modelling, data exchange and data security
    • quality assurance
    The student can understand and reflect on:
    • development methods in web development,
    • web architecture and design patterns,

    Skills

    The student will get the skills to:
    • master all stages of development including planning, developing and implementing web applications based on concrete development requests, as well as evaluating practice-orientated and theoretical issues and selecting and justifying relevant options in relation to the development of web applications
    • evaluate and justify the choice of a suitable programming language and relevant methodologies for the implementation of web applications,
    • master a suitable programming language to develop web applications
    • use relevant theories and methods of quality assurance for all phases of development
    • use methods and tools within development environments to release web applications

    Competences

    The student will learn to:
    • manage complex web development and development-orientated situations in web development
    • independently engage in academic and interdisciplinary cooperation in a professional manner and assume responsibility within the framework of professional ethics in relation to web programming
    • identify and structure their own learning needs and develop their own knowledge, skills and competencies in relation to web programming

  • Type of instruction
    The teaching in the Web Development Programme is a dynamic, interactive process, where the main emphasis is on student participation. The teaching is based on relevant business practice, and links theory and practice. Issues are included from the different types of companies in the IT sector. The student takes responsibility for his or her own learning, and the teachers constructively contribute to the learning process.

    To ensure the optimal academic learning and personal development for each individual student, the Web Development Programme uses varied pedagogy with the main emphasis on dialogue, discussion and projects.

    The teaching is organised so that it is varied, among other things, through class teaching, guest lectures, company visits, project work in groups and individual work – often using interdisciplinary issues and always with an application-orientated basis. The different learning formats will, in addition to the academic content, also develop the student's ability to work both independently and in collaboration with others.

    In general for all of these activities, the course of study always tries to set clear objectives for the learning activities.
