Some examples of guest teacher classes hosted separately throughout the study year are master classes, workshops, lab classes and clinics.
Attendance is not compulsory at all guest teacher classes, but students are expected to attend at least half of the events offered, and to actively participate in discussions and assignments.
Mode(s) of instruction
Variable, but always including master classes, workshops, lab classes and clinics that, depending on the composition of the group, take place entirely on-campus, entirely online or in a combination of both, i.e., that there are attendees both physically in the classroom and virtually via a screen. Online attendees communicate by seeing, talking and listening to each other and the on-campus attendees equally. The teacher has access to a whiteboard, application sharing, desktop sharing and document sharing and can hand this privilege to any other participants.
