Time and location

Verkossa itsenäisesti Moodle-työalustalla - kuten todettua, ei säännöllisiä luentoja mutta tentit tehdään livenä.

Learning materials and recommended literature

Toimitetaan kurssin alussa yhteiseen Moodle-verkkotyötilaan.

Teaching methods

Kurssin virallinen ajankohta 20.1.-20.5.2022. Kyllä, kurssityötila aukeaa siis Moodlessa keskellä aloitusviikkoa.

Kurssin aloitusinfovideo tulee Moodleen katsottavaksi kurssin alussa.

Kurssi suoritetaan itsenäisesti Moodle-verkkoalustalla annettujen aikataulujen mukaisesti (ei viikoittaisia luentoja, sen koommin kampuksella kuin verkossakaan). HUOM! Kurssin lopussa toukokuussa pidetään kuitenkin livenä verkossa sekä suullinen että kirjallinen lopputentti. Nämä suoritetaan verkossa Moodlen ja Zoom-palvelun kautta. Tarkemmat ohjeistukset tähän annetaan kurssin aikana. Kurssi koostuu muutoin viikottaisista harjoitustehtävistä, sekä opettajan arvioimista suullisista ja kirjallisista töistä.

Koko opintojakson suorittaminen vaatii siis hyvän internet-yhteyden, web-kameran sekä mikrofonin/headsetin sekä riittävät tietotekniset taidot ja valmiudet (esim. ääni- ja videotiedostojen tekeminen, Zoom-tapaamiset tenteissä).
