Learning Outcomes
Competences
By the end of the course, students will be capable of importing various types of data into Excel/OriginPro, performing necessary calculations, and fitting data within this software tools. Additionally, students will understand and apply error calculus to data sets and will be able to present their results graphically in a clear and effective manner. The course also includes a basic introduction to the use of ChemDraw.
Skills Knowledge
At the end of the lecture, the students should be able to • import different types of data, perform calculations and fitting in Excel (k2, k3) • import data, perform calculations and fitting of the data in OriginPro (k2, k3, k4) • understand error calculus and apply it to sets of data (k2, k3, k4) • present their results graphically in an adequate manner (k2, k3) • proficiently use ChemDraw to create meaningful graphics and reaction presentations (k2, k3) • Knowledge on how to plot, analyze, and present experimentally obtained datasets. • Understanding the use of Excel for data handling. • Understanding the use of OriginPro for scientific results handling. • Knowledge of assessing and understanding the types of errors in data. • Ability to present chemical reactions and larger reaction schemes and analytical data by using chemical drawing software
Criteria for evaluation Written exam with examples using software on a computer. Data sheets will be provided and must be processed using the knowledge obtained for the specific software packages (Excel, Origin, ChemDraw).
Methods The lecture is conducted both as a presentation mode of the lecturer to the students and interactively, with both lecturer and students using the software (Excel and OriginPro) in the computer room to gain hand-on experience. The students are guided through the software and taught what to do with the datasets, from importing to plotting, analysing, saving and exporting the graphs.
