Hello everyone.
Unfortunately this week i happened to miss the mondays lecture, because we were on a student cruise, which was pretty epic. The cruise is twice a year and we were also there last year, hopefully again next year.
I also missed the thursdays lecture because of some personal matters that needed my immediate attention, but i heard we had some great stuff going on, shame i couldn't make it.
Some of us also got to present the subjects we chose earlier on this course, the point of this was to teach each other something new. My team's subject was "Social media 101", which is basically a guide to how to maintain or make a successful social media account, business wise of course.
Well not much more to be said on the week i was not present, but hopefully next week will be as awesome as usual and will make up for the time lost.
PS: Hopefully this week's lectures will be added to the drive so i can view them later!

Hello!
This week was quite brilliant, we had two guest lecturers, Jaakko Alasaarela who is the CEO of a company called ZEF Solutions. The company helps customers with decision making and provides tools to test what they should pick, for example they made a tool where you input your answers and it tells you what kind of dog you should buy, interesting stuff.
Jaakko's lecture was amazing it was truly inspirational, he told us to write down our dreams and keep track if and when we achieve them, by writing them down you can easily follow if you have already accomplished them. He also talked about Zlatan Ibrahimovic how he also struggled a lot before reaching his goals.
The second lecturer was Camilla Tuominen, the CEO of Emotion Tracker. She mainly talked about emotions overall and how hard it is to actually recognize all of them, thats why she created an application that helps you keep track of them and also identifying them. This subject was totally a new one for me, i had no idea people actually would like to do something like this, really innovative product.
We also got a group work to read a few thesis analyze them and make a presentation about it, i chose two thesis' about the digital era, which were kind of interesting, got me thinking if i should aim for something similar?
We ended the week with our presentations and our digital coaches gave us two presentations about Search Engine Optimization and a internet service called Freshdesk, not going to talk that much more about them since the subject is quite huge, but overall great stuff.
See you next week.

Hello,
this week was quite different and it has been almost a year since we last studied a similar subject, this week we studied about the law issues of our line of business. The lecturer Marjaana Marmo started on monday with a lecture, where we went through the basics, for example if an offer is sent and you receive a response, where the terms of the offer are being agreed then a binding contract has been formed. I must say some of the stuff we learned was interesting, but major of it was at least in my opinion quite boring. But as Marjaana said for Bachelors of business administration law is just a tool that we are going to use to achieve something or follow as guidelines.
After the lecture on monday we were given three tasks, first one was to make make a powerpoint presentation about "Business on the internet" and use the book called "Markkinointijuridiikka" to cover the basics of it. The second task was to make another presentation about the about the book and we were told to make it so good that if Ilkka or Anna wouldn't knew anything about the subject, then after the presentation they would know everything. Third task was actually in my opinion the hardest, we had 9 different cases where in some cases something shady had happened and in one a person had bought shoes from a sale and she did not like them, so the question was can she return them? On this task we had to use a book called "Juridiikan Perusteet", we had to browse through the pages to find the answers.
On thursday we had the weekly wrap-up where we had the usual lottery which team is going to present their presentations. Afterwards we covered the task with the 9 cases and every group was made to answer what they think is the right legal answer.
The week was really different on what we usually do, but it was also really good to learn this subject, because i know it will probably come in handy in the future.
Let's see what next week brings us!

Hello again.
Week 9 has passed and im still learning more and more, there's so much stuff to learn about digitalism and marketing. This week we had a great lecture about sports marketing by Arto Kuuluvainen from a company called M3Research Ltd. The lecture was filled with great information and fun facts, for example i had no idea how much money the soccer teams can be actually be worth (Real Madrid was around 3 billion USD).
Arto's presentation also covered a subject, how companies can use sports teams to market themselves by sponsoring them they gain visibility and the sports team also gets money, so it's a win-win situation for the both of them, atleast that's how i saw it.
Here's the link to one of the videos he showed us.

We also worked this week for a Start-up company called Dogle, which was great we got to innovate with our teams for the company. Can't really talk more about that since we were told not to.
We also had our weekly usuals for our target company, this week we did some social media posts and picked pictures from them also and i finally finished the commercial video for the company.
Great week overall, let's see what we get next week.

Hello!
This week we did not have that much to do since we had exam on thursday, so i basicly read the entire week for it. The exam was quite odd one actually, we did it online which was a first time for me at least. I think it was actually way better since we didn't have to go to school to do it and i could concentrate much better due to the lack of people around. I think the exam went great, but it's hard to evaluate it myself, let's hope we get the grades as fast as possible. We are also going to have to next exam online also, which is great.
I actually did not learn anything new during this week, except for some small points regarding the topics that we had learnt earlier, but not anything major. Next week we are going to continue the group works and on monday we will have a few guest lecturers!
Overall another great week of new experiences, not much happened so i am not going to drivel any longer.
See you next week
