The sense of community
samok.fi/blogi/korkeakouluyhteisojen-huomio-suunnattava-nyt-vuorovaikutukseen
The pandemic has reduced facing others. → Now special attention should be
paid to strengthening the sense of community.
• Digital tools have both enabled and complicated the interaction.
• We all have a basic need to be part of the community.

Steps of co-operation
in online learning environments
Minna Lakkala, University of Helsinki (2008)
Shared and longterm development of solutions
and outputs – Primary focus on practices of building
knowledge
Discussion and interaction between the
participans – Primary focus on communication skills
Communication and sharing ideas and learning
outcomes – Primary focus on the content and
performing knowledge
Communication is between the teacher/trainer
and participants – Primary focus on content
No co-operation – environment is about sharing
materials – Primary focus on content
Online coffee breaks
• Before the lecture.
• After the lecture.
• Hybrid learning: breaks for
online students too.
• Enough time for interaction in
breakout rooms.

Remembering new things
is not like a bank.
It is more like a workshop.
You need tools to learn,
to remember and to work
online with others.

Use apps on the previous slide
• You can also use apps that you don't sign in to or provide information to.
• You can also use apps that you sign in and share your own materials.
– Do not log in to outside services with the university's credentials.
– Observe the Terms of Use – and their changes!
– You cannot decide to log in or disclose information on behalf of others.
• If you use the apps in such a way that personal data is stored in the service
(e.g. list of names, emails, login), check where the data and servers of the
service are located. If they are located outside the EU, you need to ask
students/colleagues for permission to use the service - and offer an
alternative.
