Opetustilanteen tallenteet
Tämä opetuksena toteutettava opintojakson oppitunnit tallennetaan joustavaa opiskelua varten. Mikäli et halua olla mukana tallenteella, ilmoita tästä opettajalle opintojakson ensimmäisellä opetuskerralla. Opetustilanteiden tallenteet ovat nähtävissä opintojakson ajan opintojakson käyttämällä oppimisalustalla. Jos ryhmän kanssa ei sovita muuta, opetustilanteiden tallenteet poistetaan viimeistään 6 kk opintojakson päätyttyä.
