    Teaching methods and instruction

    This is an implementation where the student learns completely independently by carrying out mainly automated tasks in an e-learning environment according to their own schedule. There are no scheduled classes or other online meetings. Students can communicate with each other and the teacher of the implementation through a discussion platform.

    NONSTOP means that students can complete at their own pace during the course of the implementation. The teacher accepts the new enrolments at least once a week, and for the last time, two weeks before the end of the implementation. The teacher gives an assessment to a student in Peppi as the student completes the implementation.
