Course history

Introduction

The course covers basic knowledge about anatomy, physiology and histology. Key aspects are knowledge about and understanding of the connection between the structure and function of different tissues and organs and the most important mechanisms for regulating biological functions. Basic knowledge of anatomy, physiology and histology is a prerequisite for understanding disease and how it can affect analysis results.

The course consists of the following subject areas, specified below as the number of credits:

  • Anatomy and Physiology 9,5
  • Histology 0,5

Required preliminary courses

The student must have been admitted to the study programme.

Learning outcomes

After completing the course, the student is expected to have achieved the following learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge and skills:

Knowledge

The student

  • is capable of describing basic knowledge about how cells, tissues, organs and organ systems are built up and function
  • is capable of describing the appearance of cells and tissues based on micro-examination of histological specimens and blood smears
  • is capable of describing different types of human sample material and how samples are taken, handle and stored
  • has knowledge of basic medical terminology

Skills

The student is capable of

  • microscopically examining cells and tissues from different tissue and organs
  • performing simple physiological investigations
  • taking blood samples from fellow students in accordance with applicable procedures

Teaching and learning methods

Teaching methods include lectures supplemented by compulsory group work and practical exercises to support the theoretical basis. Students will also carry out practical laboratory exercises that place the course in the context of medical laboratory science.

Course requirements

The following required coursework must be approved before the student can take the exam:

  • a minimum of 90% attendance in practical laboratory work
  • a minimum of 80% attendance in scheduled group work, seminars and tests
  • laboratory reports in accordance with specified criteria

Assessment

Exam content: The learning outcomes

Exam form: Individual written multiple choice exam, 3 hours

Permitted exam materials and equipment

Dette emnet vil belyse relasjonelle ferdigheter og gruppeprosesser både i sosialpsykologisk og atferdsanalytisk perspektiv. Veiledningsferdigheter i praksis blir vektlagt. Emnet vil dekke atferdsfenomener som sosialpsykologien fokuserer på.

Grading scale

Studenten må være tatt opp på studiet.

Ferdigheter

Studenten kan

  • formulere atferdsanalytisk perspektiv på atferdsfenomener innen sosial psykologi
  • redegjøre for motivasjonsteori ut i fra et sosialpsykologisk og et atferdsanalytisk perspektiv
  • forklare begrepene verbalt samfunn, regelfølging, og instrukskontroll
  • beskrive veiledningsprosessen, gjennomføre gangen i et veiledningsforløp og samt å gjennomføre grunnleggende veiledningsferdigheter
  • anvende ulike veiledningsteknikker og effektiv kommunikasjon
  • formulere forhold som kan virke samarbeidsfremmende, konfliktutløsende og konfliktløsende
  • beherske å gi positiv og korrektiv tilbakemelding i en veiledningsprosess

Generell kompetanse
