DATA3740 IT-Innovation and entrepreneurship project Course description

Det er avsluttende vurdering av hvert emne.

Vurderingsformer som benyttes i studiet, inkluderer teoretiske og/eller praktiske semesteroppgaver, skoleeksamen, mappevurdering, hjemmeeksamen, muntlig høring og rapport. Det vil i de fleste emner kreves deltagelse i den organiserte undervisningen for at studenten skal kunne besvare oppgaver ved avsluttende vurdering på en tilfredsstillende måte. Med mindre annet er oppgitt under overskriften Vurdering i emneplanene, kan eksamensbesvarelser leveres på norsk, dansk, svensk eller engelsk.

Alle skriftlige besvarelser skal følge retningslinjer gitt i fagtekstmal ved Institutt for journalistikk og mediefag.

Ved avsluttende vurdering av hvert emne benyttes vurderingsuttrykk bestått/ikke bestått eller en gradert skala med fem trinn fra A til E for bestått og F for ikke bestått. Hvilken vurderingsform og hvilket vurderingsuttrykk som benyttes, framgår av beskrivelsen av hvert emne.

I emner hvor den avsluttende vurderingen består av to deler, danner del 1 grunnlag for karakteren, mens karakteren kan justeres ett trinn opp eller ned i en muntlig høring i del 2.

Når en praktisk produksjon og/eller en oppgave gitt som arbeidskrav i et emne er tilknyttet en avsluttende vurdering, skal studenten som regel utarbeide et refleksjonsnotat. Et refleksjonsnotat er en metoderapport med drøfting i lys av pensum, der studentene skal beskrive og vurdere det de har jobbet med.

I tilfeller hvor det i den avsluttende vurderingen inngår en oppgave opprinnelig gitt som arbeidskrav, er arbeidskravet å anse som et forarbeide til mappevurdering. Studenten kan gjøre endringer i teksten før innlevering.

Ny/utsatt eksamen

Dersom ikke annet fremkommer av emneplanen, må både vurderingsdel 1 og 2 tas på nytt ved ny/utsatt eksamen.

Sensorordninger

Vurdering og sensur skal foregå i samsvar med bestemmelsene om vurdering i lov av 1. april 2005 nr. 15 om universiteter og høyskoler og forskrift om studier og eksamen ved Høgskolen i Oslo og Akershus.
