Examiners

All exams are assessed by two examiners. At least 50% of the students will be assessed by an external examiner. The external examiner’s assessment should benefit all the students.

Overlapping courses

The course consists of two two-day workshops. Students are expected to participate actively in both workshops. During the first gathering at OsloMet, all participants will give a five minutes presentation of their projects and connect these to the course topic, while during lectures and discussions, the students will be introduced to the theories, methods and approaches.

Between the workshops, the students will write an individual draft paper that gives a clear outline of an analysis that combines insights gained during the first workshop and course readings. In the paper, participants are encouraged to use their own empirical material or engage literature that is relevant to their projects. These drafts will be discussed with fellow students and lecturers during the second workshop and form the basis for the final individual paper.
