Examples of connections

Explanation

Competence aims after energy and management systems

The pupil is expected to be able to

  • To plan means to set up a course of action to reach a goal. The plan describes how we intend to reach the goal, and may show the link between activities, implementation and the goal.

    , execute,

    To assess means to consider different aspects of an issue or point of view. It may also include judging the quality of a product or process. An assessment often results in a decision, a judgement or a conclusion.

     and

    To document is to demonstrate what we have done, preferably also how and why. There are different types of documentation to show the quality of a work process, a product or a service.

     work assignments related to energy control systems, individually and in cooperation with others and ground their choices
  • programme and put into operation systems to control rotational direction and engine speed, explain the principal behaviour of motor control systems, and

    To discuss means to consider different ideas and opinions related to sides of an issue, and to argue for and against. A discussion can be ended with a conclusion. We can discuss independently and in dialogue with others. A debate among several persons on a subject can mean the same as to discuss.

     power loss
  • assemble, programme and put into operation a demand-driven system for lighting, heating and various power outlets, and discuss energy saving in relation to the chosen control system

  • To use means to apply something or to carry out a task to reach a goal. To use, which is closely related to apply, is understood as to utilise or to employ, for example, a method or a tool.

     the correct hand tools and machines to produce metal parts and other materials based on blueprints
  • assemble and put into operation a small system for producing and storing renewable energy, including rectifiers and inverters, and

    To explain something means to give a well-grounded explanation of a subject, an issue or something we wish to examine or implement.

     the conversion of DC voltage into AC voltage
  • assemble and put into operation control systems that use movement, pressure and temperature measurements as input data
  • assemble a small distribution system with the associated earthing system and

    To describe means to portray or recount an experience, situation, work process or a topic. To describe something may also refer to using relevant terminology to systematise knowledge of a topic.

     the principal construction of TN, IT and TT networks
  • choose suitable leads, cables and guards, calculate and

    To assess means to consider different aspects of an issue or point of view. It may also include judging the quality of a product or process. An assessment often results in a decision, a judgement or a conclusion.

     voltage drops, and

    To document is to demonstrate what we have done, preferably also how and why. There are different types of documentation to show the quality of a work process, a product or a service.

     protection against overloading and electric shocks
  • identify the components in an air handling and heat pump system,

    To explain something means to give a well-grounded explanation of a subject, an issue or something we wish to examine or implement.

     how the main components work and measure CO2 and temperature
  • carry out risk assessments and work in compliance with electrical safety routines, machine safety routines, and health, safety and environment routines
  • carry out lifesaving first aid

  • To use means to apply something or to carry out a task to reach a goal. To use, which is closely related to apply, is understood as to utilise or to employ, for example, a method or a tool.

     documentation and appropriate instruments to troubleshoot electrical installations
  • work professionally on energy control systems in accordance with regulations, assembly and installation instructions, and

    To use means to apply something or to carry out a task to reach a goal. To use, which is closely related to apply, is understood as to utilise or to employ, for example, a method or a tool.

     appropriate hand tools and machines
  • calculate electricity, voltage, resistance, impedance and power in DC voltage and AC voltage circuits, and

    To use means to apply something or to carry out a task to reach a goal. To use, which is closely related to apply, is understood as to utilise or to employ, for example, a method or a tool.

     appropriate instruments to measure and

    To assess means to consider different aspects of an issue or point of view. It may also include judging the quality of a product or process. An assessment often results in a decision, a judgement or a conclusion.

     the measured result against the expected result

  • To explain something means to give a well-grounded explanation of a subject, an issue or something we wish to examine or implement.

     various types of production, storage and transmission of electric power and

    To reflect means to examine and consider different aspects of your own and others’ actions, attitudes and ideas. We may also reflect on a subject, practical activities or our own learning. Reflection means testing out our own thoughts and attitudes to develop better insight and understanding.

     on and discuss the potential impact of these on climate and environment

  • To explain something means to give a well-grounded explanation of a subject, an issue or something we wish to examine or implement.

     and

    To assess means to consider different aspects of an issue or point of view. It may also include judging the quality of a product or process. An assessment often results in a decision, a judgement or a conclusion.

     how social partners cooperate to

    To develop means to design, create, model or shape a new method, a product or a service.

     a better workplace
  • use and handle materials and equipment in energy control systems in a responsible and sustainable manner in accordance with applicable internal control systems

Formative assessment

The formative assessment should help promote learning and the development of competence. The pupils demonstrate and develop competence in energy control systems when they use knowledge, skills and critical thinking to solve assignments in the programme subject.

The teacher facilitates pupil participation and encourages the desire to learn through a variety of assignments. The teacher can give assignments that cover multiple or all the programme subjects. The teacher shall have conversations with the pupil regarding their development within energy control systems. The pupils shall have the opportunity to express what they believe they can accomplish and reflect on their own academic development. The teacher provides guidance on further learning and adapts the education to enable the pupils to use the guidance provided to develop their competence in the programme subject.


Assessment of coursework

The grades awarded for coursework reflect the overall competence of the pupil in energy control systems at the end of the education in the programme subject. The teacher plans and facilitates the pupils in demonstrating their competence in various ways. Using the competence aims as a starting point, the teacher shall assess how the pupil demonstrates understanding, reflection and critical thinking, and how the pupil masters challenges and solves assignments in various contexts. The teacher awards grades in energy control systems based on the competence the pupil has demonstrated by planning, completing, assessing and documenting their own academic work
