creating such an environment by encouraging a
mutually supportive relationships where students are
valued for the unique, creative perspective they
bring. Each study unit requires active commitment,
as peer-learning and self-driven learning activities
are the foundation for deep learning. Studies can be
done on campus or online. Students receive regularly
?triggers? (complex questions), guidance and
resourceful lectures as a pedagogical framework. The
triggers are work and/or civil society related. The
lectures are a blend between theoretical discussions
and Finnish/ Nordic guest lectures. During all

community among learners is essential for developing
common purposes and inquiry in each learning unit.

qualitative interactions (reflective and threaded
discussions) there needs to be a collaborative
starting point.
