The project will be carried out as a P2P project in cooperation with Häme University of Applied Sciences (HAMK) and Zhejiang University.

Project content:

This project is a part of the following wider project. This project will start actual collaboration with partners in Finland and China and build up the network. Finally this project will organize an international workshop for the partners in Finland or organize an international workshop together with the partners in China.

Ideally, the project team will be comprised of two business students of Laurea, two health care and social services students of Laurea, and four students of HAMK.

The wider project:

1. The aims of the project
The aim of the project is to develop long term collaboration between Chinese and Finnish HEI's (Higher education institution) in the field of wearable intelligence by developing physical and digital learning environments, learning methods and educational materials. The emphasis of the collaboration will be in designing wearable intelligence solutions, developing materials, mecatronics, artificial intelligence and ICT-competences under the themes of wellbeing, health and productivity.

2. The project activities
Main activities of the project are four (4) 3-day long international workshops, where multidisciplinary student teams together with teachers, researchers, representatives of wearable intelligence business and experts of experience develop the learning enviroments, methods and materials of wearable intelligence. The workshops are evaluated and developed by using the feedback from participants. Between the workshops student teams continue to test and develop their ideas and prepare new ideas and questions for the next workshop. During the project some of the students will concentrate on creating and updating the projects www-page and in the end of the project there will be a closing meeting for all participants, partly in digital environment.

3. The anticipated results (immaterial & material)
Material results:
- new physical and digitals learning environments, learning methods and educational materials of wearable intelligence
- study environment for student participants
Immaterial results:
- stronger connections and networks between HEI:s, business partners and researchers
interested in using and developing wearable intelligence
- developing and strengthening the communication and multicultural skills needed in
international environments
- new ideas and expanded networks for business partners

The competence that develops in the project:
- developing and strengthening the communication and multicultural skills needed in
international environments
- new ideas and expanded networks for international partners
- new ideas and knowledge about wearable intelligence
- project skills

The project is completed in cooperation with a working life partners in a P2P learning environment. Names of the partner HEI's (Higher education institution):
Häme University of Applied Sciences (HAMK)

The project may provide competence and credits for other modules as well: Project Management.

Guidance sessions and communication practices are agreed on a project-specific basis. The project suits students in blended learning programmes, the face-to-face instruction days scheduled for these students are Tuesdays.

Project suits students in blended learning programmes.

If this project is fully booked, students may use post-enrolment to apply for projects and study units which still accept students.

Laurea reserves the right to make changes.

The enrolled students will develop their competencies related to the study in question during this project implementation.

Project MAY INCLUDE ONE OR TWO INTENSIVE WEEKS where 100% attendance is mandatory.

The intensive working week may be actualized depending on travel restrictions. The Finnish team may visit China or a Chinese team may visit Finland. Laurea will cover the costs for flights and accommodation of the Finnish students. In case of the Chinese team will arrive in Finland the Finnish team will plan and implement the week's schedule and activities within the planned budget.

The enrolled students may be interviewed 7-9.12. 2022 in order to ensure commitment to project.

Daytime learning:
An independently studied part supports the project implementation, but it is important to take part in project teamwork and guidance on campus according to schedule. Studying requires active participation and commitment to interactive project work and 100% attendance during the intensive weeks. You will receive feedback for assignments from the teacher, and working life and peer feedback are also utilised.

Project’s guidance and working sessions can be viewed in Timetable Engine. Communication practices are agreed on a project-specific basis.

Laurea reserves the right to make changes.

Quality of implementation has been evaluated and self-evaluation report is available in Teams.
