ITK029A Model-Driven Development of Ubiquitous Web Applications (2 ECTS cr.)

Contents: Course Content: • Introduction into Web-Application modelling • Modelling Web-Applications with UML • Customisation to deal with ubiquity • The Web Modelling Language (WebML) • Hypermedia-Patterns • Students model a case Web-Application • Students evaluate method and tool / report on their experience with respect to ubiquity
Learning outcomes: Goal of this course is to give a first insight into the model-driven development of Web-Applications with particular focus on ubiquitous web applications. A general introduction into the design space of Web-Applications is presented laying out the dimensions which need to be covered by modelling. Using the Unified Modelling Language issues of Web-Application modelling are discussed. Additionally, an approach for customisation modelling to deal with the requirements of ubiquity is presented. Focus is also given on reoccurring structures of Web-Applications so called hypertext-patterns
Prerequisites: Prerequisites: Knowledge about Web Application technology (HTML, JAVA, Web-Servers) Conceptual Modelling / Data Modelling, Unified Modelling Language UML
Modes of study: Based on original literature students are introduced to the elaborated Web-Application modelling method WebML. The course will introduce this method and the underlying development tool (WebRatio) to enable the students to work on a case Web application. During the week students are given time to develop their own little Web application using WebML and WebRatio. By the end of the week the students will present their sample Web application and reports on their experiences concerning methodology and tool with particular respect to the issue of ubiquity.
Schedule: MON 03/OCT 10:00-16:00 Introduction to Web-Application and customization modelling, WebML and WebRatio WED 05/OCT 10:00-12:00 Interactive Support in developing the case example FRE 07/OCT 09:00-12:00 Student presentations of case study model

Contents: [Not translated.] Opintojakso muodostaa elävän ja aktiivisen yhteyden yliopisto-opintojen ja työelämän välille. Opintojakson aikana opiskelijat oppivat uusia asioita ja soveltavat aiemmilla kursseilla opittua todellisiin ympäristöihin. Ohjattu työskentely yhdessä asiakasorganisaation tietojenkäsittelyn ja sovellusalueiden ammattilaisten kanssa luo puitteet käytännön ja teorian yhteensovittamiselle. Samalla se antaa opiskelijoille kuvaa tulevista työtehtävistä sekä kehittää heidän ammatti-identiteettiään. Opintojakson tavoitteina on antaa opiskelijoille omakohtainen kokemus projektitoiminnasta, erityisesti sen johtamisesta projektipäällikön näkökulmasta. Toisena perustavoitteena on luoda kuvaa tietojenkäsittelyn kehittämishankeen läpiviennin kokonaisuudesta ja eri osapuolten rooleista siinä. Opiskelu perustuu organisaatioiden todellisten tietojenkäsittelyn kehittämishankkeiden työstämisestä saataviin kokemuksiin ja niiden reflektointiin. Projektimuotoinen työskentely tehdään voimakkaassa vuorovaikutuksessa asiakasorganisaatioiden ihmisten kanssa. Opiskelijat työskentelevät 4 - 5 hengen projektiryhmissä. Opintojakson aikana opiskelijat toimivat vuorotellen projektiorganisaation eri rooleissa. Projektitöiden kohteena olevat kehittämistehtävät vaihtelevat: ne voivat koskea koko organisaation tietojenkäsittelyn kehittämistä, rajatun toiminnan tietojärjestelmäratkaisun kehittämistä ja teknistä ja taloudellista arviointia, ohjelmistovalintoja, tietojärjestelmäratkaisun toteuttamista ohjelmistokomponenteista integroiden, järjestelmän käyttöönottoa, menetelmäkehitystä, koulutusta, multimediatuotantoa yms. Koska kehittämishankkeet toteutetaan projektimuotoisina, työskentelyyn liittyy projektityölle ominainen toiminnan perusteellinen suunnittelu ja toteutumisen seuranta. Työskentelyssä korostuvat myös tietojärjestelmien suunnittelumenetelmien soveltaminen ja asiakasyhteyksien ylläpito. Tärkeitä piirteitä ovat lisäksi projektimuotoinen ryhmätyöskentely sekä opiskelijoiden itsensä suorittama työskentelyn ja sen tuloksen itsearviointi (reflektointi). Oleellisena osana opintojaksoon kuuluvat käytännön projektityöhön perustuvat ja sitä tukevat luento- ja seminaaritilaisuudet, joissa opettajina toimii sekä yliopiston omia että yliopiston ulkopuolisia eri alojen asiantuntijoita.
Prerequisites: [Not translated.] Suoritettuna tulee olla perus- ja aineopinnot cl-seminaaria (TJTC86) ja kandidaatintutkielmaa (TJTC87) lukuunottamatta. Opintojaksolle hakijat jaetaan A-,B-,C- ja D-hakijaryhmiin suoritettujen tutkintoon sisällytettävien kurssien opintoviikkomäärän perusteella. A-ryhmään sijoittuvat opiskelijat valitaan suoraan opintojaksolle. Ryhmien B ja C kohdalla esitietovaatimusten täyytymisellä on suuri merkitys. Yksityiskohtaisempaa tietoa valintarymistä ja esitietovaatimuksista esimerkiksi uutta tai vanhaa tutkintorakennetta noudattaville opiskelijoille löytyy opintojakson WWW-sivustolta osoitteesta: http://projekti.it.jyu.fi/ajankohtaista/.
Selection procedure: [Not translated.] Valittaessa opiskelijoita kurssille tärkeässä roolissa ovat suoritettujen tutkintoon sisällytettävien kurssien opintoviikkomäärä sekä esitietovaatimusten täyttyminen. Tarkempaa tieto opintojakson opiskelijavalintamenettelystä löytyy projektiopintojen WWW-sivustolta osoitteesta http://projekti.it.jyu.fi/ajankohtaista/.
Modes of study: [Not translated.] Projektimuotoinen ryhmätyöskentely, itsenäinen työskentely, vertaisoppiminen, luennot, seminaarit ja muut koulutustapahtumat.
Completion mode: [Not translated.] Aktiivinen ja dokumentoitu työskentely laitoksen ja projektitehtävän tarjonneen asiakasorganisaation määrittelemässä projektiryhmässä (275 tuntia), ryhmänä tuotetun yliopiston ja asiakasorganisaation hyväksymän ratkaisun esittäminen määriteltyyn ongelmaan sekä aktiivinen osallistuminen opintojaksoon liittyviin tukikoulutustapahtumiin (125 tuntia).
