The basis for this dissertation has been the need to create a new education
model to be used in master studies in mathematical information technology at
Kokkola University Consortium Chydenius. This education model has been
created as the result of the design science research. The solution heavily utilizes
educational technologies, especially streamed lecture videos and associated
practices. The primary goal of the education model has been to make education
more accessible by offering students more flexible participation opportunities.
The essential goal of this dissertation is to describe and evaluate the achieved
education model. The purpose of evaluating the model was to determine the
functionality of the model and its impacts from the viewpoints of the model's
various participants, including students, lecturers, and the educational
organization. The evaluation is applied to both the functionality of the
technological solutions of the education model, as well as the practices formed
around these. Evaluation is carried out in various case studies reported in
publications that form parts of this dissertation. The introduction section of the
dissertation provides a synthesis based on these publications and presents an
overall evaluation of the education model.
The evaluation of the education model's functionality was performed by
examining its cost efficiency, operational reliability and transparency. According
to the results, the education model is highly functional in these respects.
The goals set for the education solution with regard to its impacts were also
achieved very successfully and were even above expectations. Accessibility was
also increased to a highly favorable level. Improvements to accessibility also
had positive impacts on learning outcomes. The research results indicate that,
from a learning standpoint, studying with videos is at least equally effective as
studying via contact teaching. In summary, it can be stated that it is possible to
form an education solution based on both contact teaching and the use of videos
that is meaningful for students, lecturers and the organizer of education alike.
