Arviointiasteikko

H-5

Sisällön jaksotus

The course starts with a preliminary task in January 2023. Choosing the team task, design and output methods are agreed within the teams. The work will be conducted in Teams via internet and lecturers and experts are available online during separately assigned times. The course ends by 30.4.2023. The course has a few fixed times for participation and in addition to this, the student teams will agree on their own schedule.

Tavoitteet

After the course the student will be able to utilise multidisciplinary expert networks, creative thinking and different technologies for solving problems related to forest bioeconomy. The student will understand the complexity of forest bioeconomy and its effect on, for example, well-being, tourism, legislation, education and regional economy. The student knows the basic concepts and principles of forest bioeconomy.

Kurssin suoritettuaan opiskelija osaa hyödyntää monialaisia asiantuntijaverkostoja, luovaa ajattelua ja erilaisia teknologioita ongelmanratkaisuun metsäbiotalouden aihepiireissä. Opiskelija ymmärtää metsäbiotalouden monialaisuuden ja sen merkityksen esim. hyvinvoinnin, matkailun, lainsäädännön, koulutuksen ja aluetalouden näkökulmista. Opiskelija tuntee metsäbiotalouden käsitteistöä ja periaatteita.

Sisältö

During the course, multidisciplinary teams will define an actual, current forest bioeconomy related problem and design a solution (product, process, service, procedure, etc.)for it together with forest bioeconomy experts from working life. Multidisciplinary problem solving and developmental ways of working will be trained. Experts, research knowledge and different technologies are utilised for designing the solution.

The solutions will be shared on the online platform. Technology that enhances interaction and place and time independence will be utlised and supported during the course.

Opintojakson aikana monialaiset opiskelijatiimit määrittelevät metsäbiotalouteen liittyvän ajankohtaisen haasteen ja kehittävät siihen ratkaisuehdotuksen (tuote, prosessi, palvelu, toimintamalli, tms.) yhteistyössä asiantuntijoiden kanssa. Kurssin aikana opetellaan monialaista ongelmanratkaisua sekä kehittävää työskentelytapaa, jossa hyödynnetään asiantuntijoita, tutkimustietoa ja erilaisia teknologioita ratkaisun muotoiluun. Opiskelijatiimien ratkaisut jaetaan verkko-oppimisympäristössä. Opintojakson toteutuksessa hyödynnetään ja tuetaan vuorovaikutteisuutta sekä aika- ja paikkariippumattomuutta edistävien teknologioiden käyttöä.

Opetusmenetelmät

The course is suitable for students from any discipline and teams will be formed as multidisciplinary teams consisting of students from different universities and countries. The focus is on wellbeing in the context of forest bioeconomy. In the previous implementations, the students have been for example from teacher education, IT engineering, forestry, biology, business, law and administration and environmental sciences.

Our working life partners will present problems and cases from their operations and the student teams will design a solution (product, process, service, procedure, etc.) for it together with forest bioeconomy experts from working life. Multidisciplinary problem solving and developmental ways of working will be trained. Experts, research knowledge and different technologies are utilised for designing the solution.

The course work in teams and with our working life partners will increase your future skills, the so called 21st century skills.

The solutions will be shared on the online platform. Technology that enhances interaction and place and time independence will be utilised and supported during the course.

Harjoittelu- ja työelämäyhteistyö

The teams will work closely with the working life partners, which are companies, public bodies and associations.
