Further information
Opiskelijat osallistuvat lisäksi opinnäytetyön suunnittelua tukeviin monialaisiin kehittämis- ja tutkimustoiminnan verstaisiin ja suomen kielen ja viestinnän opettajien tarjoamiin pajoihin. Kukin verstas tarjotaan useamman kerran saman sisältöisenä ja opiskelija valitsee itselleen sopivimman ajankohdan.
Opettajalla on oikeus antaa opiskelijalle lisätehtäviä esim. poissaolojen johdosta pedagogisin perustein.
Opettajan laatimat tehtävät ja MATERIAALIT ovat Tekijänoikeuslain (404/61) mukaisia teoksia, joihin opettajalla on tekijänoikeus. Tehtäviä JA MATERIAALEJA ei saa käyttää muuten kuin omissa opinnoissaan. Niiden julkinen levittäminen on sallittua vain opettajan luvalla.
Mikäli opiskelijalla on yksilöllisen tuen päätös, joka vaikuttaa opintojakson suorittamiseen, tulee opiskelijan olla yhteydessä opintojaksototeutuksen vastuuopettajaan heti ilmoittautumisajan päätyttyä.
