Description

UNIPS is a Finnish national online platform developed collaboratively by eight universities to provide self-study and guided short modules in university pedagogy for university staff and doctoral students.

Components

  • UNIPS online platform for university pedagogical support: UNIPS is a national Finnish online learning platform, built on WordPress, offering short one-ECTS modules in university pedagogy for self-study and guided study. It is “open to all university staff and doctoral students for self-study and one-credit guided study courses”, and guided study “utilises online discussions to create knowledge collaboratively and improve pedagogical expertise”. It was developed to give flexible access to staff, such as doctoral students not currently teaching, who traditionally could not enrol in face-to-face pedagogical training. In this study it hosted the three concurrent five-week modules whose effects were measured. (Henna Vilppu et al. (2019))
