Contents The teaching module deals with the specific sampling activity in detail, starting from the general and transversal principles of: Planning, Sampling, Sample conservation, Transport, Storage, Sample preparation, Analysis, Data evaluation. Through the analysis of life and work contexts, students must be able to evaluate what are the dangers connected to the situations, and be able to apply and perform the samples of matrices useful for the analysis of the context.
Reference texts There are no specific reference texts for the subject. However, reference is made to the UNI EN ISO technical standard. The teaching material that is presented during the lessons is shared with the students before the start of each lesson. For the days of face-to-face lessons, it is also possible to participate remotely in the form of distance learning. On the days of lessons that include laboratory activities, presence in the classroom is mandatory.
Educational objectives The course represents one of the most important teachings for the figure of the Prevention Technician in the environment and in the workplace and examines the basic elements of sampling activity. The main objective of the course is to provide students with the basis for tackling the study and analysis of life and work contexts through the study of contexts, and to be able to apply the appropriate sampling techniques useful for the acquisition of laboratory data necessary for risk assessment. The main knowledge acquired will be: • knowing how to plan, perform and manage a water sampling for chemical and microbiological analysis • knowing how to plan, perform and manage a sampling of airborne pollutants • knowing how to plan, perform and manage a noise sampling • knowing how to plan, perform and manage a surface sampling • knowing how to plan, perform and manage a soil sampling • knowing how to plan, perform and manage a fibre sampling • knowing how to plan, perform and manage a vibration sampling
Prerequisites In order to understand and be able to apply most of the techniques described in the course, it is necessary to have successfully passed the exams of the first two years of the course. In addition, other topics covered in the module require knowledge of the hierarchy of regulatory sources, and to know what is meant by hazard identification, risk analysis and risk management.
Teaching methods The course is organized as follows: - classroom lessons on all the topics of the course; - exercises in the laboratory for the execution of samples. Students will be divided into groups of 2 and will follow 4 guided exercises of 3 hours each; - simulation of an intervention to evaluate life and work contexts through the identification of dangers, and the assessment of risks with the application of sampling methods.
Other information The classroom lessons are conducted with the method of frontal teaching connected online The exercises are carried out in presence in a mode guided by the teacher
Learning verification modality The exam includes a written test and the presentation of a paper produced in a group. The written test consists of solving multiple-choice tests. The test lasts no more than 30 minutes and is aimed at verifying the ability to correctly apply theoretical knowledge and the ability to understand the problems proposed. The presentation test of a paper produced in a group complements the other test and consists of the discussion of a case study proposed by the teacher as a laboratory activity regarding the simulation of a risk assessment activity. The test as a whole allows to ascertain both the ability of knowledge and understanding, and the ability to apply the skills acquired, and the ability of presentation, and the ability to learn and develop solutions in independent judgment.
Extended program Sampling activities: General and transversal principles of: Planning, Sampling, Sample conservation, Transport, Storage, Sample preparation, Analysis, Data evaluation. Practical technical study related to: • water sampling for chemical and microbiological analysis • sampling of airborne pollutants • noise sampling • surface sampling • soil sampling • fibre sampling • vibration sampling
