In this course students will be exposed to and examine the concepts underlying sustainable design engineering as they pertain to engineering practice and in particular engineering research and the development of new technologies. Sustainable design engineering can be defined as an engineering design process which considers not only the key performance indicators and functional characteristics of the system being developed but also the environmental, social and economic context and impacts of the system. Recent advances in sustainability research have focused on the complex interactions between these areas, evolving from "green engineering" to a full consideration of sustainability. In order to develop sustainable solutions, engineers and researchers must be able to critically evaluate their work in this context. To this end, students will examine case studies and relevant readings on such topics as sustainability indicators, techno-economic and life cycle assessment, stakeholder engagement, real time technology assessment, engineering justice, and design for sustainability. While approaches for addressing the specific areas of environmental, social and economic sustainability will be covered, the focus of the course will be on the interactions between these areas. A key outcome of this course will be a paper critically examining the student's research topic from the perspective of sustainable design engineering.

Bonjour à toutes et à tous!

Il me fait un grand plaisir de me présenter à vous. Mon nom est Maha Thomas et je serai votre instructrice du cours ED-4900 : Intégration de la langue au contenu. J’aurai alors le privilège de travailler avec vous du 18 septembre au 20 octobre. Je vous souhaite donc la bienvenue à mon cours!

Pour parler un peu de moi, je peux certainement vous dire que je suis une personne qui adore la lecture, la musique, le voyage et par-dessus tout j’aime avoir du plaisir avec mes étudiants !
C’est donc avec beaucoup d’enthousiasme et de motivation que je commence déjà à planifier mon cours et les activités que nous ferons ensemble pour avoir de la vie, de la joie et du plaisir pendant ces quatre semaines qui nous attendent et qui passeront très vite!

Vous pouvez être certain.e.s que je ferai tout ce que je peux pour qu’on puisse apprendre, explorer, s’inspirer, partager, faire des échanges stimulants, tout en s’amusant ensemble et donnant le meilleur de nous-mêmes pour avoir quatre semaines pleines d’apprentissage et de beaux souvenirs.

Lors de ces semaines, nous explorerons l’intégration de la langue française au contenu dans les classes d'immersion. Cependant, la plupart des éléments que nous aborderons, pourraient très bien être utiles et s'appliquer également aux classes des programmes en français langue première situées en milieu minoritaire.

Je vous prie de bien vouloir vous procurer le manuel du cours Vers une approche intégrée en immersion de Roy Lyster, Les éditions CEC disponible à la librairie de l'université (UPEI Bookstore) puisque nous l'utiliserons d’une façon régulière pendant ces semaines. En plus, nous aurons à faire des lectures, des réflexions, des travaux d’équipes et des présentations.

Veuillez également noter que ce cours comprend deux modes de livraison :

Þ Le mode asynchrone : Cela signifie que vous êtes libres de vous connecter à Moodle, à partir de vos ordinateurs, à l’heure et à la date qui vous conviennent le mieux, tout en vous assurant de respecter les échéanciers liés à votre cours.

Þ Le mode synchrone (présence requise) : Vous serez invités à vous connecter en synchrone (tous au même moment) au système de visioconférence Blackboard Collaborate deux fois afin qu’on échange ensemble en direct, soit le lundi 18 septembre et le lundi 20 octobre de 16h00-17h00.

Þ Mes heures du bureau virtuel seront tous les lundis et les mercredis de 16h00-17h00 pour répondre à vos questions, vos demandes et vos besoins et pour vous offrir du soutien.

En attendant, si vous avez des questions, n'hésitez pas à communiquer avec moi (mathomas@upei.ca).

J'afficherai bientôt, ici dans Moodle, plus d'informations.

Sur ce, j’aimerais vous dire que c’est avec beaucoup d’impatience que j’attends le 18 septembre pour pouvoir vous voir, vous rencontrer et vous accueillir à mon cours!

This course provides students with an opportunity to learn about the foundational theory and practices in psychological assessment of adults and begins with an examination of the nature and limitations of psychological assessment through an in-depth review of psychometric theory. Students are then provided with a survey of prominent approaches to the assessment of various psychological constructs including intelligence, personality (objective and projective), and mental health symptoms. A critically informed analysis of the role, benefits and costs of psychological assessment and diagnosis is undertaken. An emphasis on issues related to psychological assessment with diverse populations is present throughout the course. Students receive hands-on instruction in the administration, scoring and interpretation of major psychological measures used with adults (e.g., tests of intelligence, academic achievement, personality and mental health). Within the context of conducting rigorous and comprehensive assessments, students are also introduced to the concept of "formulation", namely how clinical psychologists draw on theory and key empirical findings to examine a client's or family's problems, how they arose and what may currently be holding them in place. Moreover, the importance of considering cultural and individual differences when assessing clients is examined. Ethical issues that may arise when working with adults in an assessment context are explored. 07-09-2023-21-12-2023 Lecture Thursday 02:30PM - 05:20PM, Robertson Library, Room 210
