Teaching methods

In this course, the students will study technological solutions, good practices and projects in health and wellness promotion in social and health care worldwide.
Some of the themes approached are multidiciplinary perspectives, gamification, enhanced end-user engagement, eServices, empowerment, social connectivity, quality of life, inclusion through digital skills and AI-based services. Also, the concept of sustainability as well as the future of circular economy is studied during the course.

Study unit consists of lectures, field visits and seminars. There will be both individual and group assignments and a project work.

Course attendance requirements: Attendance is compulsory for all lessons unless agreed separately in class. You need to attend a minimum of 70% of classes, so in case there are, for example, 10 contact times, each 4 hours, you can miss three 4-hour classes (12 hours). If your absences are more than that, your grade will drop by one, for example from 3 to 2. In case your absences exceed 50% of contact hours, you need to consult your teacher on how to finalize the course (this could mean retaking the whole course, doing supplementary tasks or taking additional classes, if available). In case your tasks are considerably late but completed during the term in question, this will also affect your grade by -1. If the required tasks and requirements are not met, you need to enroll again for the course. For supplementary or delayed tasks, there will be no feedback.

For the final written assignment, the students can choose a topic of their interest.
The course takes place at Tikkurila campus (daytime studies).

Evaluation methods and criteria

In this study unit the assessing of the competences will be done by using the criteria set for requirement level II.
