Course content

The course deals with programming as a subject and skill and will provide insight into how to create digital solutions. The course emphasizes programming as a constructive and creative tool. The course will focus on basic programming and give the student a reasonable basis for taking IT6204, which focuses on applications and how programming can be communicated to students, focusing on creativity and collaboration in problem-solving. The course builds competence in basic programming and learning through interactive online resources and an exercise program that provides a steady progression in learning. In parallel with their programming learning, students must reflect on the learning process and build didactic competence.
