The two-part video series Modularity explores modularity as a phenomenon and encourages you to think about the learning process from the perspective of the continuous learner.
The videos are produced in Finnish and are subtitled in Finnish, Swedish and English.
Episode 1: What are we talking about when we talk about modularity?
Part 1 discusses modularity as a phenomenon and the benefits of modularity from the perspective of the continuous learner, as well as the formulation of the competence objectives and sub-competence objectives (Open episode 1 video, 13:24 min)
Reflect and describe

- What kind of support would you need in designing a modular learning process for continuous learners?
Episode 2: The learning process from the perspective of the continuous learner
In the second section, you will be encouraged to think about the learning process from the perspective of the continuous learner. How should the learning process be designed to meet the needs and expectations of diverse learners? (Open episode 2 video, 17:28 min)
