Sisältö ja sen jaksotus

You have enrolled in to study unit, Intercultural approach to design thinking (IADT) A9269-3021. This study unit will begin on 23rd August on the campus. The course in Canvas will be available before our start.
The English language is integrated into the design thinking approach in this implementation, and there is a need for a teacher who can be responsible for your language competencies and skills. Due to the changes in the employee situation, we are still waiting for another teacher (s) to join teacher team.
For this reason, please note that the study unit implementation and description in Pakki will only be updated after the summer break. The course's basic structure will not change, but naturally, decisions concerning assessments and tasks cannot be made until the teacher team has managed to start work together.
The Design Thinking approach in this study unit implementation will be conducted interactively. To learn intercultural communication skills, direct interaction between participants is essential. In practice, contact sessions will be based on collaboration and interaction and not primarily focusing on sharing information unidirectional (= traditional lecturing). Meetings will include group discussions, presentations, elements from flipped learning and other interaction, and hopefully other inspiring activities. For that reason, mainly in the contact meetings, it will be necessary to communicate using video and voice. So, during the summer break, ensure that your device's camera and microphones are working correctly. In case you cannot use either of those, for example, with your laptop, you may also log in the zoom with two devices simultaneously (for example, with the mobile phone for audiovisual communication and computer to reach the material, share the screen, etc.). Please, check these practicalities well in advance.
Due to the interactive nature of the learning and teaching, our meetings will be audio recorded only to a limited extent, focusing on presentations, not workshops and other actions. Participation and involvement of each actor will be essential. In case you need to be absent, or you cannot interactively participate, there will be an option to complete the tasks differently (with video or written forms). These options will be communicated in Canvas after each contact meeting.
