Demonstration of the syllabus coherence with the UC intended learning outcomes
This Curricular Unit is provided with a theoretical and a practical component, which together cover a very important objective of the Logistics Management in modern organizations. Since this Curricular Unit deals with operations in logistics environment, its syllabus covers all aspects of the supply chain and processes throughout the distribution chain. In this way, the objective of the Curricular Unit is to recognize the great importance of logistics in the current context and as a key factor for cost reduction in a company, often due to the transformation of fixed costs into variable.
The Curricular Unit also aims to develop student’s skills and knowledge tools to enable them to face the rest of the course with an appropriate level of knowledge about the inter-connection between information systems and supply chain management.
Teaching methodologies
The Curricular Unit is structured around theoretical classes, in which it seeks to familiarize students with core theoretical tools and practical classes. Practical classes provide the tools and management techniques suitable for logistics performance. Both class types provide the consolidation of knowledge and develop skills for their application. The teaching-learning process is focused on the content and the learning needs of students.
In this way, we seek to articulate among different types of work (study of theory and practical work in the real environment) to provide the creation of different situations and contribute to training the student to consolidate their knowledge.
Demonstration of the teaching methodologies coherence with the curricular unit's intended learning outcomes
The selection of teaching methods is based on learning objectives of the Curricular Unit, which inter relates the theoretical and practical classes, with the first appearing particularly to knowledge and understanding while the latter seek is to operationalize the concepts and is focused on practical problem solving.
This way, the lectures use the exposition and interrogation method, which contributes to recognize the importance of the need to reduce time between the creation of a product until the placing of the same product at point-of-sale or consumption.
This capacity to reduction time (eliminating inefficiencies) implies the optimization to a maximum of the entire logistics chain and consequently, provides cost savings to an organization.
In practical classes participatory approach predominates in which concepts are operationalized mostly through practical cases and the use of tools and management techniques that provide the logistical consolidation of knowledge and enable the development of skills for its application in particular in these areas:
1. Classification model and analysis "ABC"
2. Center of Gravity method
3. Dependent demand: MRP - Materials Requirements Planning
4. Heuristic model
5. Distribution model: DRP - Distribution Requirements Planning
6. Independent Search: EOQ - Economic Order Quantity
Thus, students assimilating theoretical and practical knowledge through teaching methodologies practiced, acquire solid skills in the Curricular Unit.
Assessment methodologies and evidences
Continuous evaluation
The assessment of knowledge consists of:
• Written Test (T1), individual with questions of a theoretical and practical nature.
• Written Test (T2), individual with questions of a theoretical and practical nature.
• Preparation, presentation and discussion of a Group Work (TG).
Final Score = 0.35 (T1) + 0.35 (T2) + 0.3 (TG)
• If the grade of any of the elements is less than 7,5 values, the student will have to make a final evaluation.
• The tests (T1 and T2) will not last more than two hours each.
Final evaluation
There are three seasons of final evaluation:
Normal Season | 1st season (intended for students who did not opt for continuous assessment)
The evaluation of the normal time is constituted by:
* Final Exam (E)
If the exam grade is lower than 10, there will be no approval.
Time of Resource | 2nd season (it is intended for students who did not or did not obtain an achievement in the normal time or in the continuous evaluation)
The evaluation system is the same as in the final evaluation of the Normal Season, with (E) being the exam mark of the Appetition Time.
Note Improvement is done in accordance with the 1st Cycle School Performance Assessment Regulations.
Special Season:
The evaluation system is the same as in the Appeal Time, where (E) is the Special Period exam grade.
Attendance system
Not mandatory, but the attendance is registered
