Oodikone

Oodikone is a tool for monitoring the teaching of degree programmes and students’ studies. After being added as the supervisor of a student group in Sisu, you will have access to a view in Oodikone where you can follow the study progress of the students in the guidance group as a whole. Oodikone’s strengths include the ability to monitor the study progress of the entire student group.

Thessa

Thessa is an electronic tool used at the University of Helsinki for supervising, planning and monitoring doctoral studies. A supervision plan is an agreement made by the doctoral student and their supervisors immediately at the beginning of doctoral studies. The plan specifies the common rules of the supervision relationship, as well as the rights and obligations of each party involved. The plan is prepared in Thessa.
