B.Boh was a supervisor of a doctoral student B. Šumiga in the programme of Scentific and technical informatics. The dissertation is a representative example of a successful combination of information literacy of graduate students, and a problem solving approach in natural sciences. Transfer of knowledge into industry - the doctoral student was a young researcher, who is now employed in industry (Iskra mehanizmi).
D.09 Tutoring for postgraduate students
COBISS.SI-ID: 1520732In an effort to deepen and expand IL skills beyond a general perspective, a methodological model was developed that integrates IL competency standards with solving study and research problems in science and technology. An example from a postgraduate study of scientific and technical informatics is given, that combines heuristic and mathematical-statistical information methods with experimental laboratory work. Presented in a case study of microencapsulation technology, the research and development (R & D) process consists of ten steps: (1) definition of the research field, with selection of the priority niche; (2) preparation of profiles for advanced search queries on professional information databases, for the acquisition of scientific literature and patents; (3) construction of an in-house information system to support R&D in chemical microencapsulation technologies; (4) analysis and synthesis of information from full text documents, to identify relationships between raw materials, process parameters and the final properties of microcapsules; (5) design and verification of selected microencapsulation processes in the laboratory; (6) identification of the relationships between the main process parameters and properties of microcapsules, to design a matrix; (7) development of a prediction QSPR (Quantitative Structure-Property Relationship) model to determine and predict the successfulness of microcapsule synthesis by in situ polymerization for new core materials; (8) laboratory microencapsulation of new materials, and transfer of optimized processes into semi-industrial reactors; (9) incorporation of microcapsules into new formulations and market products; (10) generalization of the methodology to support R & D activities in academic and industrial environments.
