Teaching methods
The course will be offered in the form of online studies, including voluntary webinars. The studies have been scheduled, but are highly independent in nature. You will receive guidance in the form of weekly guidance messages. The learning assignments are learner and working life oriented, which means that you will make use of your existing competence in your own field. You will receive community-based feedback on some of your learning assignments. At the end of the course, you will receive a video-based, forward-looking summary feedback and evaluation from the instructor.
Student workload
In total, the course consists of 135 hours (5 x 27h) of students’ work.
The course will be offered as scheduled online implementation utilising various online tools and working methods. The amount of independent work ranges from 6 to 8 hours/week. The course consists of four parts. The study process in parts 1 to 3 is pre-scheduled and proceeds with a steady workload, so it is advisable for the student to schedule their study time in advance. Part 4 allows more time to be used in relation to the subject being studied to allow those willing to do so to test in their teaching practice the learning assignment/process they planned in the previous parts.
Content scheduling
Voluntary online webinars:
- start webinar: 19.1.2022 14:00 - 15:30
- guidance clinic 1: 2.2.2022 14:00 - 15:00
