Looking at course information on MyCourses

Aalto University offers a variety of services that make teaching and learning motivating and rewarding. Much effort is put in storing and safeguarding all the necessary study-related information and data. 

The Teacher Services team supports teaching and academic guidance, the learning platform MyCourses, Panopto, Turnitin and other digital tools for teaching, and also the electronic assessment service EXAM.

Digitalisation brings new inspiring opportunities enabling flexible and diverse learning, learning support and assessment. Electronic services allow you to stay in touch regardless of time and place. One can, say, recall a lecture from a video and be assured that course and study material is always accessible wherever one may go.

We specialise in supporting and guiding the teaching staff in pedagogical and academic matters, in the selection of learning technology, and in the development of teaching and digital services supporting teaching and learning. We take care of maintaining digital solutions in collaboration with IT services.
