Practical training is an integral part of studies in the Master’s Programme for Media Education at the University of Lapland, Finland. This three-month period has not included any simultaneous tutoring from the faculty members. Instead, students have attended a practical training seminar after the training period. During their practical training, students have relied on mentoring offered from the place of their internship. This paper describes the development, testing and implementation of an online tutoring model for supporting meaningful learning during students’ practical training.
