Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Työviikkopohjainen oppimisväylä:
Osallistut työjärjestyksen mukaiseen opetukseen ja ohjaukseen. Opiskelusi rytmittyvät työjärjestyksen mukaisten ryhmätapaamisten ja itsenäisesti tehtävien oppimistehtävien mukaan.

Opintoja nopeuttava oppimisväylä:
Suoritat opintojakson toisen ryhmän mukana.

Työhön integroitu:
Mikäli työskentelet terveysalalla, voit mahdollisesti suorittaa opintojakson osittain omassa työpaikassasi. Tällöin sovellat mahdollisuuksien mukaan työtehtäviäsi jalkaterapian näkökulmaan. Sovit opettajan kanssa osa-alueista jotka voit suorittaa työssäsi ja loput osa-alueet suoritat ryhmäsi mukana. Oppiminen edellyttää, että työssäsi perehdyt opintojaksolla käsiteltäviin teemoihin ja hallitset ne sekä teoriassa että käytännössä. Osoitat osaamisesi koululla annettavana näyttönä, jonka laajuus määräytyy opintojakson oppimistavoitteiden mukaan. (not translated)

Assessment methods and criteria

Opintojakson suorittaminen vaati tenttien sekä opintojaksolla sovittujen oppimistehtävien tekemistä hyväksytysti. (not translated)

Distance learning

Recommended or required reading

Learnissa on opiskelumateriaalia, tehtäviä ja opetusnauhoitteita , joita kannattaa ensisijaisesti hyödyntää koska niihin on koottu keskeinen opiskeltava aines.
Opintojakson aiheisiin laajemmin syventyessään voi käyttää mitä tahansa ammattikorkeakoulun tasoista anatomian ja fysiologian oppikirjaa.
Suosittelen: Leppäluoto, Kettunen, Rintamäki, Vakkuri, Vierimaa, Lätti: Anatomia ja fysiologia- Rakenteesta toimintaan. (Uusin painos – myös vanhemmat painokset käyvät) Sanoma Pro Oy (ISBN 978-952-63-5311-1) (not translated)

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Työviikkopohjainen oppimisväylä:
Opintojakso toteutetaan Learnissa ja opintojaksoon liittyy viikoittain vuorovaikutteista opetusta ja ohjausta verkossa Adobe Connect järjestelmän kautta toteutettuna webinaareina. Webinaarit ovat aikaan sidottuja ja työjärjestykseen merkittyjä. Niihin voi osallistua kotikoneelta ja ne äänitetään, joten niitä voi katsoa nauhoitteena ellei pääse osallistumaan kyseisenä ajankohtana.
Opintojaksoon kuuluu palautettavia tehtäviä ja oppimistenttejä Learnissa sekä lopputentti.. Tenttien ajankohdat voi itse sopia/ määrittää.
Tarkemmat ohjeet opintojakson suorittamisesta on esitetty Learnissa.

Opintoja nopeuttava oppimisväylä:
Opintojaksolla ei ole käytössä työhön integroitu opintoväylä koska opintojakson opintoaines on soveltavalla tasolla esille tulevaa työelämässä.

Työhön integroitu oppimisväylä:
Opintojakso on mahdollista suorittaa omaan tahtiin opiskellen. (not translated)

Assessment methods and criteria

Opintojakson arviointi perustuu oppimistentteihin ja lopputenttiin. Lisäksi tulee opiskelijan palauttaa määräajassa Learnissa palautettavaksi merkityt tehtävät. (not translated)
