haridustermin

Haridustermin is a term commonly used in Estonian education to refer to the academic semester, which is a division of the academic year. In Estonia, the academic year is typically divided into two semesters: the autumn semester and the spring semester. The autumn semester usually begins in early September and ends in late January or early February. The spring semester then commences in February and concludes in June. These semesters are characterized by periods of teaching, learning, and examination. The exact start and end dates for each haridustermin can vary slightly between different educational institutions, such as universities, vocational schools, and general education schools, and are usually published in their academic calendars. The concept of haridustermin helps structure the academic activities and provides a clear timeframe for students and educators to plan their work and studies. It encompasses lectures, seminars, practical work, and assessment periods within each distinct segment of the academic year.
