Future-led Learning 14: Meri Kuikka and Tuomo Eloranta on co-teaching

Season 3 ends in co-teaching. What is that? University teacher Meri Kuikka and postdoc researcher Tuomo Eloranta have been teaching together for years at Aalto and can give us invaluable and practical insights into what co-teaching means in practice.

Future-led Learning 13: Kyösti Ruuttunen on academic advising

Riikka Evans discusses academic advising with senior university lecturer Kyösti Ruuttunen. 

Academic advising at its best is a joint journey that supports self-reflection. An academic advisor is a person representing the study programme with whom the students may discuss goals and wishes related to their studies, as well as topics related to the field and research.  The aim of the guidance is to support the students in their studies. The adviser is the person who knows, helps and gives advice.  

Kyösti Ruuttunen is a senior university lecturer teaching and researching biomass refining. Kyösti advises Bachelor's, Master's, and Ph.D. students' theses. His fields of interest include biomass fractionation with chemical and mechanical methods (e.g. chemical and mechanical pulping), wood chemistry, and pedagogy in higher education.

Future-led Learning 12: Matti Kuittinen on sustainability

Riikka Evans discusses integrating sustainability into teaching with Professor Matti Kuittinen from the department of Architecture at Aalto University. Matti also develops policies at the Ministry of the Environment. 

In Aalto University’s strategy our purpose stands as follows:  “Aalto University’s purpose is to shape a sustainable future. We do high-quality research, excelling and making breakthroughs in and across science, art, technology and business. We spark the game changers of tomorrow, and renew society with research-based knowledge, creativity and an entrepreneurial mindset. All our work is guided by the values of the university: responsibility, courage, and collaboration.” 

Therefore, finding solutions for sustainability is one of the three cross-cutting approaches in our living strategy. Sustainability is, however, a complex and multifaceted field and many of us struggle to find meaningful ways to integrate sustainability into our everyday work.  

Future-led Learning 11: Pirjo Kääriäinen

What is inclusion in the context of higher education? What kind of feedback do we get from our students? And what is the teacher's responsibility? Why is it important to foster inclusive learning culture? It's all about interaction.
