Sisällön jaksotus

Main marketing terms, models and other theoretical background will be learned with the help of the chosen course book, other materials chosen by the tutor teacher for the tutorials as well as by the independent information search of the students. The application of the theoretical knowledge to the working life project occurs by independent information search, team work, tutorials and benchmarking. The exam the 13th November will be a group exam (same groups as in project work). Both theoretical knowledge and ability to apply is needed to pass the exam.

Opetusmenetelmät

The aim is that the students assimilate the core marketing concepts - both traditional and modern approaches -, but also apply and utilize the theoretical knowledge in real working life context, thus adding value to the development process of the organisation, which is their "project client". The clients will give some basic information on their product and the students´ task is to create a reasonable (preliminary) marketing plan for the product (see outcomes above). The students will work in mixed (Finnish students + exchange students) groups of approximately 5 - 6 persons.
The course implementation includes :
* contact lessons/workshops each week
* team work each week agreed day (monday) and during contact lessons
* independent individual learning (remote work)
* tutorials (see separate instructions at Optima, minimum attendance 3 tutorials, all independent learning reports have to be returned), presentations and a group exam during contact lessons.
