Opetusmenetelmät

The course is implemented as face-to-face teaching using electronic work tools with a schedule according to the timetable. The course material is added to It'sLearning as the course progresses and is available to students until the end of the course.

There are several individual exercises during the course related to the topics covered on the lectures.

During the course, a group exercise is carried out , where the things learned during the course are applied to a practical application. A report is produced from the exercise work, which is evaluated as part of the whole. The progress of the exercise is followed with pre-determined milestones.

Some Q&A sessions will be arranged where students can discuss and get a feedback from exercises done during the course.
