Course Workload:

Component: University component

Cycle: Base disciplines

Goal

• The purpose of the discipline is to provide professional training for the next generation of future specialists in the design of energy-efficient buildings.

Objective

• - Study the theoretical prerequisites for the design of energy-efficient buildings.
• - Systematize the main problems and study materials on renewable (alternative) energy sources, rational consumption of fuel and energy resources;
• - To form a system of concepts and ideas about the principles of energy-efficient building design.

Learning outcome: knowledge and understanding

• Know: - principles of energy efficient building design; - Modern system of views on the management of design and construction of energy-efficient building abroad and in Kazakhstan;
• Have an idea of: - trends in the development of architecture, volume-planning, compositional and constructive solutions of energy-efficient buildings, the prospects for urban planning, planning and development of territories; - directions of improvement of building materials and products; - problems of environmental protection, ecology and life safety.

Learning outcome: applying knowledge and understanding

• - use modern methods of energy-efficient building design in different climatic zones;

Learning outcome: formation of judgments

• - To make an independent decision when choosing space-planning, compositional and constructive solutions for energy-efficient buildings;
• - Evaluate the technological parameters of the used thermal insulation materials and sealing materials in the design of the thermal insulation and airtight shell;

Learning outcome: communicative abilities

• - Develop evaluation criteria for the energy efficiency of buildings in cooperation with experts in the field;

Learning outcome: learning skills or learning abilities

• - Perform process analysis of technological, environmental, energy efficiency, and economic aspects of building design;

Teaching methods

- theoretical material in a presentational presentation; - communicative technologies (discussion, learning debates), promoting the involvement of students in the search and management of knowledge, gaining experience of independent solutions to a variety of problems.

Assessment of the student's knowledge

Teacher oversees various tasks related to ongoing assessment and determines students' current performance twice during each academic period. Ratings 1 and 2 are formulated based on the outcomes of this ongoing assessment. The student's learning achievements are assessed using a 100-point scale, and the final grades P1 and P2 are calculated as the average of their ongoing performance evaluations. The teacher evaluates the student's work throughout the academic period in alignment with the assignment submission schedule for the discipline. The assessment system may incorporate a mix of written and oral, group and individual formats.

The evaluating policy of learning outcomes by work type

Evaluation form

The student's final grade in the course is calculated on a 100 point grading scale, it includes:

• 40% of the examination result;
• 60% of current control result.

The final grade is calculated by the formula:

 

Where Midterm 1, Midterm 2are digital equivalents of the grades of Midterm 1 and 2;

E is a digital equivalent of the exam grade.

Final alphabetical grade and its equivalent in points:

The letter grading system for students' academic achievements, corresponding to the numerical equivalent on a four-point scale:
