 Learning objectives                   Furthermore learning skills are developed by reflecting on one´s own learning.
                                       Awareness of other general competences increases alongside assessment of one´s own
                                       learning and goals.
 Contents                              During the study unit, you will orientate to planning your own employment and
                                       improving your career management skills. You will recognise the learning methods that
                                       are best suited for you. The following topics are discussed in the study unit:
                                       ●       Using Optima
                                       ●       Familiarisation with the curriculum and the degree structure
                                       ●       Self-direction
                                       ●       Own learning styles
                                       ●       Planning of studies
                                       ●       Central guidelines at Laurea
 Study material                        The work space of the study unit in Optima contains a collection of tips for
                                       supplementary material. You will be granted access to this work space at the beginning

 Tutoring and communication            The purpose of the guidance is to make you think about different options, not to give
                                       complete solutions. As a student receiving guidance you are responsible for your own
                                       decisions and the direction of your career. The discussions on the study plan are
                                       conducted either in person or in goal-oriented small groups. During the study unit, the
                                       tutor teacher will also give guidance on practices related to studying. Optima will be
                                       used for communication during the study unit so it is important to make sure that you
                                       give permission for all messages from the system. In order for the guidance, advise and
