Toteutustapa

Blended learning

On this course you study mostly online. There are a few meetings at campus and It is compulsory that you attend these classes. There are several exercises, assignments and an exam during the study unit which are structured as modules which are built so that the modules should be done in a chronological order.

Before the first class you will receive an email from me where you get information about the class room where we meet and information about the Canvas platform, where to find it etc. The Canvas platform will be opened before the first class so you have the possibility to have a look at it in beforehand but everything will be explained in the first class 29 Aug.

Welcome to the course!
