Learning outcomes of the course

Purpose of the course
This course helps you keep your focus on the student when you design a course for the digital environment. You will use the learning process as a tool for designing the core of a course – and for navigating through a myriad of possibilities in the digital environment to help your students reach their learning goals. You will also explore the roles of guidance and being present in creating a good learning experience in the digital environment.

The study group consists of teacher students from JAMK and Masaryk University (MUNI) (www.muni.cz/en), Brno, the Czech Republic. You will work on a micro-project in small international virtual teams, which gives you a chance to experience collaboration between two educational contexts. The micro-project is done during the webinars, so there is no need to agree on meetings outside the online sessions with your team members.

The course activities also include orientating tasks before the online sessions, one larger individual learning task and possibly a small task that is done in virtual teams.

The medium of instruction is English. No long written assignments are required, and the largest individual task can be done either in Czech, English or Finnish.

If you do not teach or work in international virtual teams, you can consider this course as a virtual mini-exchange period and an opportunity to use the English language in a safe environment to develop the communication skills you need in facilitating learning in an international context!

The course includes five online sessions.

Competences and skills: Skills and knowledge in facilitating learning processes and Developmental skills

Learning Outcomes
The student understands the role of the learning process in designing a course for the digital environment and what is needed to support this process, and can plan a learning process for a course in the digital environment.

You will learn how to facilitate learning processes for different learners while developing your own expertise as well as your working community – all this with a proactive outlook to the future.

Our curriculum is competence-based including three key competence areas: facilitating learning, creating future and developing the teacher identity. Each of them are further divided into more specific skills and competences as described on study guide: https://www.jamk.fi/en/for-students/professional-teacher-education-student

Education content and professional growth and know-how

According to the statute (1129/2014 § 2 and 3) professional teacher education studies need to consist of 60 credits comprising of: basic studies in educational sciences, studies in vocational pedagogy, teaching practice and other studies. In our professional teacher education programme the studies under the above mentioned statue have been structured as follows:

Flexible studies

Your learning environment consists of your fellow students, educational organisations, working life and the guidance and online environments offered by the School of Professional Teacher Education. Studying at the School of Professional Teacher Education is multi-modal. Multi-modal studying combines working in a learning circle, participating in the tutoring days as well as studying online and independently.

Additional information on study guide: https://www.jamk.fi/en/for-students/professional-teacher-education-student

Working life oriented learning

Digitalization, globalization, and changes in the landscape of work all around the world set new requirements for not only teachers but also other professionals in the world of work. They are also crosscutting issues across this study programme, and you will learn how to turn these phenomena into an asset in your work as an expert of learning.

Facilitating Learning studies support the development of your expertise in facilitating of learning combining theoretical knowledge with practical tools and exercises. For students who already work as teachers, they are implemented in connection with their own teaching, and for other students, in a separately defined study environment.

Career opportunities and employment

Professional Teacher Education provides the pedagogical qualification for teaching your specific subject in Finland. Teaching, or rather, facilitating learning, is a challenging yet rewarding career choice for professionals from different fields of expertise.

Qualifications

In most cases the eligibility to apply for professional teacher education studies can be obtained with a relevant university or polytechnic degree and a minimum of three years' work experience in a field corresponding to the degree.
In the field of social services and health, either a relevant master's degree plus three years' work experience or a relevant polytechnic degree plus five years' work experience corresponding to the degree are required. More information about the eligibility on web pages: https://www.jamk.fi/en/Education/Teacher-Education/Professional-Teacher-Education/

Professional teacher education studies are regulated by the Finnish statue (Statute 1129/2014 § 6). The studies provide the graduates with the pedagogical qualification required of teachers at universities of applied sciences, vocational and professional education and training (VET), as well as, other educational levels.

Further studies

If you already have teacher qualifications, you can apply to our further education programmes for teachers: Vocational Special Needs Teacher (offered in Finnish or in English) or Study Counsellor (offered in Finnish). The extent of both of these specialisation study programmes is 60 credits. The application is annually in January.

Or pick a shorter course to develop your pedagogical skills, from 1 to 30 ECTS credits. We offer you innovative education and professional development services that meet the needs of both organisations and individuals.

Education planning

The curriculum of the School of Professional Teacher Education is competence-based. It is based on notions that are formed communally through different forms of information seeking. These notations pertain to the changing of Finnish society as part of the global community, the changes in the world of work and the resulting competence requirements, as well as the changes in vocational and higher education and the resulting competence requirements related to the work of teachers.

The European quality assurance standards require higher education institutions to periodically conduct a thorough evaluation of their degree programmes. The periodic evaluation of education is JAMK's response to the European and national requirements concerning evaluation of the programmes (incl. degree programmes and professional teacher education programmes).

The periodic evaluation identifies the strengths of the programme, good practices and areas for improvement in terms of curriculum, learning process and educational outcomes. The information is used in the planning and implementation of the education.

The periodic evaluation of the Professional Teacher Education Programme was carried out in 2020. The result was approved in all areas.

Student feedback plays an important role in the planning and development of education. It is collected at the start of the studies, during the education process and in the graduation phase. The feedback information is used to support curriculum work and develop learning environments, student services and the facilitation of learning. The professional teacher education and post-degree programmes’ effectiveness is assessed through follow-up surveys every two years.

Student feedback is processed jointly at the staff meetings during the academic year. The results are also discussed by the unit management team. The Head of Department makes the necessary corrections to the curriculum content and implementation methods based on the joint discussion and analysis.
