What is course memo?
At latest at the start of a course, a course memo should be available for the students on About course. This is regulated in "Guideline on course syllabus, grading system and examination" (See the page Guideline on course memo ). It is also stated in the guidelines which information a course memo must contain.
The course memo is the overall plan that helps the student to prepare and plan for the implementation of the course, both before the start of the course and during the course. A course memo guides the student and enables the course to be implemented in an efficient and suitable way.
The course memo contains information about the aim of the course, learning activities, preparations, details of the examination and contact details for the course. It should also include information about the student's rights and obligations on the course.
Course memo and Canvas complement each other
During the course, the student uses both the course memo (in About course) and the course room (Canvas). The course room in Canvas contains the material that the student needs to complete the course. Both the course memo and Canvas can be reached from Courses in the Personal menu. Although the course memo can be reached from the Personal meny, it is important that you add a link to the course memo in the course room in Canvas, to make it easier for the student to find the course memo. See The Syllabus function in Canvas .
