1. Introduction
This project is organised by Polytechnic Institute of Beja (IP) in Beja (Portugal) and AERES University of
Applied Sciences Almere (Netherlands), and hosted enterprise by EDIA (Empresa de Desenvolvimento
e Infra-estructuras do Alqueva). The project is part of the International Ecosystem Analysis Programme
of AERES University of Applied Sciences Almere and the Master Environmental Engineering of IPBeja.
Background information on the International Ecosystem Analysis programme can be found in “Annex
1 – International Aquatic Ecosystem Analysis”.
1.1. Context Water systems are very interesting to work with due to their complexity. To mention a few elements:
water systems integrate different scales, users and others stakeholders, ecosystems and different
fields of knowledge such as hydrology, engineering and ecology. This specific integrated project takes
place in the Alentejo in Portugal and it is related to the Guadiana River Catchment. One of the problems
is the Invasive Species in the Guadiana River Basin coming from upstream to the river (Spain).
1.2. Professional role and task In this project you will take the role of Advisor spatial planning for water ecosystems. This role is
referred to as your professional role during the project. You will work in an international team of
students. In this way different skills, knowledge and expertise of the group members have to be
combined (integrated) to come to the best possible result.
The professional task of the groups will be to study the Invasive Species in the Guadiana River Basin
and come with an advise for a solution (measures) which takes stakeholder interests into account.
Lastly, the solution should meet the relevant policy framework and wishes and be tested in an impact
assessment. To finalise the advice, it will have to be presented in a report and in a presentation for the
stakeholders.
Your official client (and co-assessor) is EDIA.
1.3. Learning objectives The professional task integrates the following learning objectives: After finishing the project successfully, the student is able to:
Work in an interdisciplinary context;
Work in an international context;
Develop a relationship with stakeholders;
Develop a comprehensive solution to invasive species integrating different stakeholder interests;
Perform an impact assessment on his/her own solution.

2. Competences
The official Module Descriptor for this project is presented in “Annex 2 – Module ”. Below the competences are described, which are 6 out of the 10 core Aeres-competences. In the past companies generally concentrated on the knowledge and training of their employees, and all
training was primarily focused on theoretical knowledge. Nowadays companies and educational institutes
are focused on competencies. That is why the AERES UAS works on integrated cases and practical experience
projects. Aeres UAS students are expected to work systematically on the development of competencies for
the full duration of the course.

3.4. Tasks
In the detailed planning the different activities are already shown, those are related to the tasks you
will have to perform. Below you can read the description of the tasks.
A. Set up a project plan (week 1)
A decent project plan is essential for professional project workers. This is even more so when
working with larger groups and tight deadlines. Official clients will always want to see a project plan
before deciding to work with you. Your project plan is also valuable in communication with
colleagues (colleague students) and superiors. Additionally, the project plan helps you to get full
understanding of the assignment.
The project plan has to be finished in week 1 on Friday the 9th of February: hand in and presented at
15:00h.
The work on the project plan has to be executed during week 1. The teachers will be available for
feedback. Use the detailed project plan format from “Annex 3 – Assessment Project Plan ” and Annex
5 (APA guidelines).
The plan will be evaluated by the teachers according to the following criteria:
Table 4. Evaluation criteria Project plan
Indicators Criteria Evaluation.
Project plan The student:
1. Has phrased the assessment into his own words in a short introduction to the project plan.

1. Introduction
When writing a scientific paper or any report, you are expected to reflect and comment on the knowledge and research findings from literature. Presenting .text or ideas from others as your own findings is however prohibited. This is called plagiarism. Still, use of information gathered and written down by others is possible through accurate reference. Accurate reference to the sources you use is of the utmost importance. The accuracy of your references will give the cited authors the honour they deserve, and enables the reader to verify your claims:
- which sources you used (reliability); - use of variation in sources; - correct use of the source; - omission of important sources.
There are two ways in using bits of someone else’s work:
- paraphrasing (in your own words); - citing (literal), always between “quotation marks”.
At the end of your paper/report you list all referred sources in a list of references: References. All references should be listed alphabetically in order of last name(s) of the author(s), subsequently author’s initials. All sources in one list, regardless of origin. AERES University of Applied Sciences Almere, adopted the reference system widely used in Psychology, Social Sciences and Plant Sciences: the system used by the American Psychological Association ( APA ). References under this system refer in-text to a source with author and year between brackets. In the Reference list at the end of the text all complete references are included. In this paper we have chosen a two-pronged approach . Examples of the official APA rules that apply to English language publications will always be given. If a particular rule deviates from the conventions of the Dutch language, the Dutch version of a description is given. Latest Word versions have incorporated APA Style (a.o.) for citation and bibliography.
2. In-text reference
Citing or paraphrasing in your paper/article/report requires mentioning the source. The source must be complete described in the References, in the text you refer to the source by mentioning author and year between brackets. Reference of one sentence before the dot, reference of more sentences after the dot. “Citation always between quotation marks.” In-text reference looks like: …. (author, publication year, if necessarily page number(s)) Examples:
- In Vietnam many US Marines were killed or injured. Three percent of the Marines died and approximately 17 percent were wounded in Vietnam. (Pietersen, 2006, p. 97).
- According to Pietersen (2006, p. 97) there were many victims amongst the US Marines in Vietnam: three percent of the Marines died and approximately 17 percent was wounded.

- In 2006 (Pietersen, p. 97) there were many victims amongst the US Marines in Vietnam: three percent of the Marines died and approximately 17 percent was wounded.
For in-text citations with three, four, or five authors, list all last names followed by commas on first reference (e.g., Smith, Jones, Marks, & Davis, 2011) and only first author followed by et al. and date for subsequent citations (Smith et al., 2011). For six or more authors, use the first author and et al. for all citations. Note: et al. is written with punctuation after al. and not italicised.
- One Author o … (Chalmers, 2008). o Chalmers (2008) … o In 2008, Chalmers …

3. Layout of references in the list
In common: - Only include (all) sources used in the paper, use original layout of titles - Arrange entries in alphabetical order by last name of author - Use a hanging indent: the first line is at the left margin; subsequent lines are indented half an
inch. - Use one space only after all punctuation, except ., (including author’s initials) - Only use the initials of the authors' first and middle names. - List all authors in reverse order: last name, first and middle initials. - If two or more authors are listed, use an ampersand (&) before the last author. - List up to seven authors; if there are more than seven authors, list the first six followed by
three dots … and then the last author. - Use commas after authors' names and before an ampersand.
