Toteutustapa

Implementation method: Class room teaching
learning environment: Canvas
guidance and communication practices: Via canvas discussion environment or e-mail

Partly automated implementation:

The study unit is completed partly independently following a schedule for returning assingments / by a given deadline. In addition to independent studying, the study unit includes scheduled teaching or guidance online. Recordings of the teaching sessions can be viewed on Canvas afterwards. The study unit does not include working in pairs or groups. You will not receive individual feedback for assignments from the teacher: feedback is based on checking the accuracy of the assingments, giving out model answers after the assignments have been returned, and giving peer feedback.

Daytime learning:

A Canvas learning environment is used to support the implementation, but it is important to take part in teaching and guidance on campus according to schedule. The study unit includes working in pairs or groups. You will receive individual feedback for assignments from the teacher, and working life or peer feedback may also be utilised.
