Evaluation methods and criteria

Osaamisen arviointi perustuu opetussuunnitelmien tavoitekuvauksiin ja opinnon toteutussuunnitelmalla ilmoitettavaan arviointikriteeristöön (Laurean tutkintosääntö).

[Ohje: Kirjaa tähän arvioinnin kohteet, painotukset, arviointimenetelmät, arvioijat ja arvioinnin ajankohta. Tarkista opinnon tiedoista arvioinnissa käytettävä vaativuustaso. Soveltumattomia kriteereitä voi jättää pois, mutta kriteereitä ei ole tarkoituksenmukaista muuten muokata]

Opinnon arvioinnissa käytetään amk-tutkinto-opiskelijan osaamisen arviointikehikon vaatimustason I mukaisia kriteereitä:

Hylätyn tentin tai muun suorituksen voi uusia kaksi kertaa. Varsinaiseen tenttiin osallistumatta jättäminen lasketaan yhdeksi suorituskerraksi. (Laurean tutkintosääntö.)

Kaikkien Laurean toimijoiden odotetaan noudattavan hyviä tieteellisiä käytänteitä, joihin kuuluu asianmukainen lähteisiin viittaaminen. Perehdy ja kysy käytänteistä tarvittaessa. Kaikki opintotehtävät tehdään yksilötyönä, jollei tehtävässä ole muuta ohjeistettu. [Urkundin käytöstä tehtävien tarkistuksen yhteydessä opettaja kertoo erikseen.] (not translated)

Further information for students

Tutkintosäännön 18§ mukaisesti ”opiskelijan on oltava ensimmäisellä kontaktikerralla läsnä tai ilmoitettava poissaolostaan vastuuopettajalle. Ilmoittautuminen hylätään, mikäli opiskelija ei ilmoita poissaolostaan opinnon aloituskerralta. Hänen tilalleen voidaan ottaa jonossa oleva seuraava opiskelija. (Lauran tutkintosääntö.) Virtuaalitoteutuksilla voidaan edellyttää muunlaista aktiivisuuden osoitusta paikan vahvistamiseksi viikon sisällä toteutuksen alkamisesta (Opetuksesta vastavan vararehtorin päätös 7/2019). ”

[Mikäli toteutuksen tiedoissa on ilmaistu, että toteutukselle on varattu paikkoja Avoimen AMK:n, 3AMKin tai väyläopintojen opiskelijoille, kerro kohderyhmälle varattu paikkamäärä tässä. Tarvittaessa tässä myös ilmaistaan mille kohderyhmälle täydentävän osaamisen opinto on ensisijaisesti kohdennettu, jos kohderyhmällä halutaan olevan etusija opintototeutukselle hyväksyttäessä.] (not translated)

Alternative completion methods

Laurean tutkintosäännön mukaisesti kaikilla opiskelijalla on oikeus osaamisensa näyttämiseen. Aloitteen hankitun osaamisen tunnistamisesta ja tunnustamisesta tekee opiskelija. Osaamisen tunnistaa ja tunnustaa moduulista tai opintojaksosta vastaava opettaja tai muu korkeakouluyksikön johtajan nimeämä henkilö. Arvioinnissa noudatetaan samaa arviointikriteeristöä ja arviointiasteikkoa kuin opintojaksolla. Katso lisätietoa Linkistä.

[Kirjoita tähän esim. hankitun osaamisen hyödyntämisen mahdollisuuksista sekä muista vaihtoehtoisista suoritustavoista.] (not translated)

Co-operation with working life and/or RDI

[Kuvaa tässä projekti/hankeyhteistyö sekä muu työelämän kanssa tehtävä yhteistyö.
Tämän tietokentän sisältöjä tarkastellaan seurattaessa toteutustapoja ja strategisten tavoitteiden toteutumista. Kentän täyttäminen ei korvaa PRM-kirjauksen tarvetta.] (not translated)

Important dates

[Mikäli opinnolla edellytetään pakollista läsnäoloa, on se kirjattava ja perusteltava opinnon toteutussuunnitelmassa (Laurean tutkintosääntö 18 §). Kerro esim. toteutuksen tehtävien palautuksesta, tenttien ja uusintamahdollisuuksien ajankohdista. Varsinainen toteutuksen aikataulu näkyy opiskelijalle Pakissa suoraan toteutuksen varauksina, joten näitä tietoja ei tarvitse tässä kentässä toistaa.] (not translated)

Internationality

[Kuvaa tässä kansainvälisyyden toteutumista opintojaksolla (esim. kansainväliset yhteistyötahot).
Tämän tietokentän sisältöjä tarkastellaan seurattaessa toteutustapoja ja strategisten tavoitteiden toteutumista.] (not translated)

Students workload

[Yksi opintopiste vastaa keskimäärin 26,7 tuntia opiskelijan tekemää työtä. Voit arvioida opiskelijan ajankäyttöä eri kokonaisuuksissa/tehtävissä. Kuormittavuuden laskemiseen löydät työvälineen Pepin opettajan työpöydän valikosta ”Toteutukset”. ] (not translated)

Content and scheduling

Sisältö ja sen jaksotus
[Kuvaa opinnon sisältö työelämän kielellä. Esim. jos opetat ohjelmoinnin perusteita, kerro myös mitä ohjelmointikieltä opetetaan. Tästä kentästä pitäisi löytyä samoja sanoja, kuin työpaikkailmoituksista. Kenttä toimii tekoälyä käyttävän palvelun perusteena jatkossa opintojen, työpaikkojen ja henkilökohtaisen osaamisen vertailussa.] (not translated)

Further information for students

Understanding customers can be challenging. Still it creates the basis for business development. To whom do you develop your service to? Who is your customer and who is the end user for the product or service? How are you able to find all necessary information and make different decisions based on it? How do you use this information in service design or development?
During this study unit we’ll go through different aspects of customer behavior. The focus and examples are from different digital services. In addition, you’ll get the possibility to analyze your own behavior as a customer.
The study unit grade is based on weekly assignments which need to be completed and returned before the deadlines.
