Objective

The purpose of the course

Videos are present in a variety of ways in the everyday lives of students and teachers. Videos have become a natural way of communicating and presenting their own competences for an increasing number of people. Videos are also a versatile pedagogical tool for the students and teachers to utilise at different stages of the learning process.

During this course, you will become acquainted with a wide range of opportunities for utilising videos as part of the learning process. You will concretely go through the video production process so that in the future, you will be able to independently produce videos and plan learning assignments where students demonstrate their competences by means of video.

Teaching methods

Opintojakso toteutetaan verkko-opintoina sisältäen vapaaehtoisia webinaareja. Aloituswebinaariin osallistuminen on kuitenkin erittäin suositeltavaa. Opiskelu on aikataulutettua, mutta luonteeltaan se on hyvin itsenäistä. Oppimistehtävät ovat oppija- ja työelämälähtöisiä eli hyödynnät niissä aiempaa oman alasi osaamistasi. Ohjausta saat opintojakson nivelpisteisiin sijoitetuilla ohjausklinikoilla sekä viikottaisten ohjausviestien muodossa. Saat yhteisöllistä palautetta kaikista oppimistehtävistäsi. Lisäksi saat kouluttajalta palautteen itse toteuttamastasi videosta sekä itsearvioinnistasi.
