Intensive Learning Week

Overview

The main objective of this week is to create an opportunity for the students to try their knowledge and skills in solving actual tasks which presume implementation of knowledge and skills of several different subjects. During these 5 days, teams with 3-6 members are solving the issues closely related to their specialties which will result in development of functioning prototype-solution.

The week is mainly intended for IT College's second year daytime study students, but it is not limited to them. IT students of other higher educational institutions in Estonia as well a neighboring countries can also take part in it.

In 2012 the week will be form 26th of March until 30th of March. We will start March 26th at 10:00.

Public presentation of finished works takes place on March 29th at 15:00.

Benefits for students

Students have said that they would like more assignments what are more practical and related to real-life problems. Therefore we offer a week there they can put into good use the knowledge what they have solving real assignments. Student gets:

• International team-work experience
• Real assignment solving experience (real client, solid deadline
• Honest evaluation of skills and knowledge
• Chance to work on tight schedule
• Nice line in CV and nice solution what can be shown in interviews

Assignments

Assignment proposals from teachers

Teachers and groups workload information system

• Proposed by and additional information: Heiki Tähis, +372 56 957 000

School needs to manage teachers workloads, courses thought by teachers and relations between teachers and courses. In curricula there are many courses what can be thought by one or many teachers and in many semesters.

At the moment everything is done in very complicated Excel table.

Teachers qualification and continuing education courses management system

• Proposed by and additional information: Heiki Tähis, +372 56 957 000

School needs to keep track teachers qualification and what courses they have taken. More information from Heiki.

Classes Linux system image upgrade to Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

• Proposed by and additional information: Margus Ernits

wiki.itcollege.ee MediaWiki update and plugins selection and testing

• Proposed by and additional information: Margus Ernits

Development version of SIS penetration testing

• Proposed by and additional information: annab Margus Ernits

Diakooniahaigla patsientide IT-lahendus

• Ülesande omanik: Kaido Kikkas, +372 50 64 464 (NB! Reaalselt jääb kureerima Indrek Rokk, kuna Kakk on intensiivnädalal Portugalis!)

Diakooniahaigla üheks tegevusvaldkonnaks on anda terminaalselt haigetele inimestele võimalus oma järelejäänud elupäevad võimalikult inimväärsel viisil veeta (hospiitsiteenus). Et tänapäeval on IT olnud juba mitu aastakümmet inimeste elu lahutamatuks osaks, hakkab kujunema olukord, kus siit ilmast hakkavad lahkuma ka inimesed, kelle jaoks IT on osa nende elukvaliteedist. Seetõttu on eesmärgiks luua IT-lahendus, mis võimaldaks voodis viibival inimesel kasutada levinumaid IT võimalusi - lugeda veebist uudiseid, pidada Skype'is vestlusi, kuulata muusikat jne.

Mõned eeltingimused

• Lahendus peaks olema kasutatav ka juhul, kui inimesel on säilinud üsna vähene liikumisvõime.
• Lahendus peaks olema skaleeruv vastavalt kasutaja oskusele - väga lihtsad elementaarfunktsioonid, kuid lisavõimalused teadlikumale kasutajale.
• Kui kasutatakse seinale kinnituvaid vahendeid (N: väline monitor), siis peavad need võimaldama voodi 180-kraadist pööramist (peatsi keeramist teisele poole).

Ülesandeks on luua terviklahenduse spetsifikatsioon, soovitavalt koos kogu vajaliku dokumentatsiooniga. Seetõttu võiksid osa võtta ka IS analüüsi ja/või tehnosuhtluse tudengid!

Üks võimalik idee

• Kasutada Asus Eee Pad Transformerit koos seinale kinnitatud suure monitoriga - see annaks kasutajale erinevad võimalused:
  • sülearvuti funktsionaalsus - kasutatakse kui tavalist läpakat
  • tahvelarvuti funktsionaalsus - kasutatakse tahvlina (NB! eeldab kasutajalt head liigutuste koordinatsiooni!)
  • lauaarvuti funktsionaalsus - Eee Padi klaviatuur ja/või tahvel pluss suur väline monitor
