Location and time

Luennot ovat tiistai-iltaisin 27.8-15.10, klo 17:00-20:15

Materials

Oppimateriaalin rungon muodostavat talouskurssi.fi - sivuston materiaali ja luennoitsijan luentoihin liittyvät luentokalvot ja muu mahdollinen materiaali.

Lisäksi käytetään osia CORE-teamin materiaalista: The Economy /Talous: www.core-econ.org/the-economy (luettavissa ilmaiseksi netissä)

Teaching methods

Kurssi koostuu itseopiskelusta, harjoituksista ja luennoista.

Opiskelija opiskelee ensin itsenäisesti talouskurssi.fi:n viikon aihepiiriä koskevan materiaalin ja tekee siinä olevat tehtävät (näitä ei arvostella). Opiskelija voi nostaa esille mahdollisesti vaikeita/kiinnostavia asioita seuraavalle luennolle.

Luennot tiistai-iltaisin täydentävät ja syventävät itseopiskeltua talouskurssi.fi:n materiaalia.
Lisäksi kurssiin kuuluvat luennoitsijan antamat viikottaiset arvosteltavat harjoitukset (7 kpl), jotka palautetaan moodleen ennen seuraavaa luentokertaa, jonka yhteydessä ratkaisut pääsääntöisesti käsitellään.

Exam schedules

Kurssitentti on viimeisen luentokerran yhteydessä (ti 15.10). Uusinnat toteutetaan EXAM-järjestelmän kautta.
