The use of technology is an essential part of studying

Information systems are intended to make work easier, and therefore it is important that the systems function flawlessly and securely. Each user of the network is responsible for his own actions, although the network and/or system administrators may set restrictions on the use of their own network.

The fact that a function is not blocked does not mean that its implementation is appropriate and in accordance with good manners.

Network rules and practices and support

More detailed rules and practices of Riveria’s network use are introduced at the beginning of the studies with the guidance of coaching teachers. The rules must be accepted in Wilma. If you face any problems, contact the coaching teacher or other staff, who can make an error report to the Riveria helpdesk if needed.

NOTE! Students can also contact eduHelppari directly, tel. 050 470 4280 or eduhelppari@riveria.fi.

Microsoft 365

As a Riveria student, you have access to the Microsoft 365 service. You can log in to the Microsoft 365 service with your Riveria email address at https://portal.office.com or http://edu.riveria.fi. Microsoft 365 also works on mobile devices. Microsoft 365 offers e.g. the following services:

Email and calendar
- 1000 Gt mailbox
- Joint address book for Riveria students and staff
OneDrive cloud storage
- 1000 Gt storage
- Sharing files and folders with other users
Teams
- Instant messaging and online meetings
Office Web Apps (Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote) applications used in a browser
The latest full Microsoft Office application for 5 personal workstations during studies

When logging into Microsoft 365 services, a personal mobile phone number must be entered and confirmed in the service due to data security reasons and features.

Use of computer classes

Malfunctions and abuse situations must be reported to a teacher or the administrators without delay in order to correct the malfunction and clarify issues of responsibility.

It is not a good idea to store important files on workstations of computer classes, because they can be lost during maintenance and workstation changes. Any saved files must at least be backed up for yourself, e.g. to the Onedrive storage service.

In computer classes teaching and guidance aids are used, e.g. the LanSchool software. Teachers can guide the student from their own computer and thus see the software displayed on the student.

To ensure data privacy, students should avoid processing personal data during classes.

Use of own devices

The use of telephones and mobile devices for acquiring information and studying is increasing. When devices are used in a study situation, it must be agreed in advance with the teacher or work-based learning instructor. As a general rule, phones and mobile devices must be kept silent or switched off during study situations (during classes and on-the-job learning).

Riveria has an own wireless network for students’ own devices. The network appears as Riveria-byod. You log in to this network with with your Riveria network credentials.

On modern mobile devices, the Microsoft 365 configuration can be done directly with your own credentials, in which case the information is available also on your own mobile phone.
