The aim of this course is to make students aware of the following aspects :
- the place of the computer scientist in society;
- the meaning of their studies;
- the computer scientist they wish to become.
Students are also encouraged to:
- open up to society and dare to encounter an unknown or little-known reality
- give service in a new reality, by committing themselves to it, in order to become fully aware of it.
The development of softskills, in particular critical thinking, communication and reflective skills, is also at the heart of this course.
- Reflect on your academic training project
- Reflect on the experience of commitment in relation to one's personal, civic and academic itinerary
Citizen involvement offers students the opportunity to :
1) take part in an associative project with social objectives, or in the project of a company involved in the social economy;
2) to reflect on their personal, academic and civic itinerary.
It's up to the student to find a project to get involved in, for a period of 30 hours (5 days or 10 half-days). FUCID can help identify suitable places and provide some addresses.
The course helps students to give meaning to their university training project.
The proposed learning process involves a service experience in an unknown or little-known reality.
This experience will help students to question their educational project and their role in society as a computer scientist.
The course alternates between a few classroom sessions, workshops run by FUCID, 30 hours of fieldwork and the production of a reflective portfolio (report) over the course of the year.
The overall assessment of the EU takes into account :
- the actual commitment of 30 hours in the field
- participation in workshops
- writing a portfolio (report)
Please note that these 3 elements must be completed. In addition, the 30 hours of fieldwork must take place in February and/or March only (the dates will be announced during the first course).
