Organisation du cours

In class face-to-face sessions including lectures, problem sessions, and guided lab activities. Off-class activities include problem-solving and projects.

A blend of directive and active learning: the former aims at transferring the knowledge from the teacher to the learner, and the latter aims to make the learner an actor of the knowledge that is constructed through experimentation, projects, and reflection.
