Further information

(1) Jos opiskelijan tutkinto-ohjelmaan kuuluu vain 3 op ammatillisia ruotsin opintoja, hän voit suorittaa ns. virkaruotsin tällä opintojaksolla. Jos tutkinto-ohjelmassa on enemmän kuin 3 op ruotsia, opiskelija suorittaa virkaruotsin kokeet oman tutkinto-ohjelman ruotsin toisella opintojaksolla. Virkaruotsilla tarkoitetaan ruotsin suullisen ja kirjallisen kielitaidon osoittamista.
(2) Opintojakso on verkkototeutus, mutta sillä on kontaktiopetusta Zoomin tai Teamsin välityksellä. Tunneilla harjoitellaan mm. suullista kielitaitoa ja niille osallistuminen on osa opintojaksojen suoritusta. Opintojaksoa ei saa suoritettua osallistumatta suulliseen opetukseen.
(3) Opintojakson kirjallinen tentti tehdään Kampustalon Exam-tilassa ja suullinen tentti Zoomissa. Vaihtoehtoisesti opiskelija voi tulle suorittamaan tentit elokuussa 2024 SeAMKin tiloihin.
