Teaching aims : Understanding
The students understand the different forms of data (text, numbers, tables, images, sound). They can explain the special properties of each data form. They can explain the components of the data lifecycle.
Analyzing
The students can analyze and describe the relationship between data, information, and knowledge. They can import data from different sources using MATLAB™. They can conduct simple analyses.
Assessing
The students can assess medical data regarding the quality and content-related information. They can identify relevant information within a given dataset.
Applying
The students apply the fundamental principles of the ETL-process (Extract, Transform, Load). They can conduct analyses independently. Implementing
The students can implement simple ETL-processes in MATLAB™.
