Teaching methods

Online implementation with a scheduled timetable, utilizing the Flipped learning method.

The student is responsible for studying the materials in the workspace, completing tasks using them, and receiving feedback primarily through collective feedback, with individual feedback also provided when necessary. The learning environment is the Moodle workspace, which will be accessible at the latest when the course begins. Guidance will be given in alignment with the lesson sequence in Zoom, with the link to the sessions announced on Moodle.

This course is designed for students who are writing their thesis in Finnish. Those who are writing in English should participate in the equivalent English-language course, Research Writing.

Students are required to attend the course once they have familiarized themselves with the source material of their thesis and are actively writing the knowledge base. To confirm this, students must submit 3–5 pages of the knowledge base of their thesis (not the research plan) as a preliminary assignment at the beginning of the study period. Throughout the study period, students will write, edit, and analyze the knowledge base of their own thesis under the guidance of the group following a shared schedule.

Please note that only students who have submitted the preliminary assignment will be officially enrolled in the course. Failure to submit the preliminary assignment by the deadline will result in the registration being removed from Pep without prior notification. In such cases, the student may register for another course implementation.

Exam dates and retake possibilities

Tehtävien palautusajat ja uusinnan ajat näkyvät Moodlen työtilassa.

Ennakkotehtävä tulee palauttaa määräaikaan mennessä, jos opintojakson aikoo aloittaa.

Tehtävät 1 ja 2 tulee palauttaa määräaikaan mennessä, mikäli opintojaksolla aikoo jatkaa. Eli tehtävät 1 ja 2 ajallaan palauttamalla osoittaa, että jatkaa opintojaksolla yhteisen aikataulun mukaisesti. Jos tehtäviä 1 ja 2 ei ole kertaalleen palautettuina määräaikoihin mennessä, ilmoittautuminen poistetaan Pepistä, jotta opiskelija voi itse ilmoittautua toiselle toteutukselle.

Tehtävät 3, 4 ja 5 voi uusia kaksi kertaa, jos ei mene ensimmäisellä kerralla läpi.

This course is designed for students who are writing their thesis in Finnish. Those who are writing in English should participate in the equivalent English-language course, Research Writing.

Students are required to attend the course once they have familiarized themselves with the source material of their thesis and are actively writing the knowledge base. To confirm this, students must submit 3–5 pages of the knowledge base of their thesis (not the research plan) as a preliminary assignment at the beginning of the study period. Throughout the study period, students will write, edit, and analyze the knowledge base of their own thesis under the guidance of the group following a shared schedule.

Please note that only students who have submitted the preliminary assignment will be officially enrolled in the course. Failure to submit the preliminary assignment by the deadline will result in the registration being removed from Pep without prior notification. In such cases, the student may register for another course implementation.
