Description
This UE is carried out in groups or individually. It follows on from "Scientific project 1". It is divided into 3 parts:
- Implementation: students carry out experiments and analyze the results (rooms and experimental equipment provided).
- Presentation: students prepare a presentation (oral + 5-page article in English) of their experiment, taking a critical look at it
and presenting it to the sponsors, teaching staff and other students.
- Critical analysis: students evaluate the other articles (peer-reviewing process) and finalize their article on the basis of the comments received.
Objectives
The aim of this course is to put students in small groups in a situation where they are faced with an open-ended "water-agriculture" question, for which they have to develop ways of finding answers through experimentation, in silico, in the laboratory or in situ, using the various skills acquired during the course.
More specifically, this course aims to carry out a survey or experiment (digital or physical), analyze it and present it in written form (5-page article) and orally.
Necessary prerequisites
Scientific Project 1
Knowledge control
Continuous assessment: 100%.
