Opintojakso antaa valmiuksia parantaa oppilaiden ja opettajien hyvinvointia yksilön ja kouluyhteisön tasolla erityisesti yläkoulu- ja lukiokonteksteissa.

Description

The course presents collective student welfare work, especially in the context of lower secondary and general upper secondary schools, introduces internal and external co-operation networks from the perspective of promoting the well-being of students and seeks to outline special needs teacher’s co-operation networks.

Educational phenomena include school engagement, absenteeism, bullying and dropping out of education. Activities promoting well-being at school and preventing students’ study problems are introduced.

Students become acquainted with school welfare plans and models in practice and make a plan to develop a school welfare model.
