This happens through group exercices and tests and Peili and possibly other mobile apps. Through the process the student will familiarize herself with the Peili 4-phase model and its tools.

  Further information for students

  Opintojaksolla oppiminen etenee itsenäisten tehtävien tekemisen ja niiden yhteisen reflektoinnin mukaan. Opintojaksolla ei varsinaisesti paneuduta valokuvauksen tekniikkaan, vaan valokuvauksen ja kuvien käytön pedagogisuuten. Jakson valokuvaustehtävien tekemiseen soveltuu hyvin kännykkäkamera ja/tai erilaiset digikamerat. Lähiopetuskerroilla läsnäolo 80% on edellytys opintojakson hyväksyttyyn suorittamiseen. (Ainoastaan kaikkia koskevissa poikkeusoloissa lähiopetus pyritään toteuttamaan liveopetuksena zoomissa.) Lähiopetus tapahtuu Myllypuron kampuksella MPA2022. Huom! Mikäli jaksolle ilmoittautuneita on enemmän kuin 20, laitetaan ilmoittautuneet sen hetkisten opintopisteittensä mukaiseen järjestykseen siten, että lähempänä valmistumista olevat opiskelijat ovat etusijalla.
