| Kurzbeschreibung | Der Bereich Praktika, Projekte, Seminare umfasst Lehrveranstaltungen in unterschiedlichen Formaten zum Erwerb von praktischen Kenntnissen und Fertigkeiten. Ausserdem soll selbstständiges Experimentieren und Gestalten gefördert, exploratives Lernen ermöglicht und die Methodik von Projektarbeiten vermittelt werden. |
| Lernziel | This P&S provides insights into various topics and challenges in the form of a scavenger hunt. In a practical and interactive session, students solve challenging tasks by coming up with innovative approaches and algorithms. This will require them to think outside the box, to implement and test ideas in Python code, and to learn how to use technical tools for rapid development. To expose students to novel challenges that require both problem solving and technical expertise to solve the task in a practical way. The main objective of the course is to train students in problem solving and to introduce them to finding and applying appropriate technical tools to solve challenges efficiently. |
| Inhalt | Students learn about various topics such as cryptography, game theory, algorithm design, and Python coding. After attending this course, students will be better equipped to tackle unfamiliar problems - gaining the necessary background and applying the right technical expertise to solve such problems in practice. |
| Skript | Python Notebooks will be distributed to students before every session. |
| Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | Students should be able to write python code. Attending the Computational Thinking lecture is enough. |
