KDK1600 Introduction to Art Communication Course description

The main purpose of this module is for the student to gain research experience through pedagogical interaction with a professional researcher or faculty. As an research assistant, the student will perform a defined and limited research task under supervision. Equally, a group of students can perform a defined and limited research task in collaboration and deliver a joint scientific outcome, while submitting individual reports. Through empirical studies and theoretical reflection, the students gain insight and skills, enabling them to undertake research tasks of a scientific standard.

The student will be participating in a project on a relevant research topic as a research assistant at the Faculty of Social Sciences or the Centre for Welfare and Labour Research (SVA).

Call for research assistant must be given by Qualified supervisors at the Faculty of Social Sciences or the Centre for Welfare and Labour Research (SVA). The supervisor decides who will be the research assistants, based on the student's application and previous qualifications. A call for assistants will normally be published at the OsloMet homepage before July 31st. Students can motivate potential supervisors to call for research assistants of this kind.

A student who has completed his or her qualification has the following learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge, skills and general competence:

Knowledge

The student has knowledge in at least two out of the following three points:

• insight into planning and running a research project
• a specialized knowledge in the research methods and theories being used in the project.
• an insight into how social research can come into practical use or have an impact

Skills

The student can in at least two out of the following four points

• make an independent and critical search for literature and relevant studies for a research project
• handle data in an ethical and critical manner, and adhere to the norms of ethical conduct in research
• critically reflect on the researchers role in knowledge production
• conduct an independent small-scale research or development project under supervision

General Competence

The student has

• developed general competence for independent research
• practiced innovative thinking and competence in transferring knowledge and skills to new areas

When students have been accepted in a project they are expected to produce the following:

1. The student will choose about 500 pages for a reading list that are thematically, methodologically and scientifically relevant for the scientific outcome, which has to be submitted as a work requirement.

2. A scientific outcome. A relevant scientific outcome for the project may be:

• a paper produced as a working paper
• a paper, poster, film or exhibit for presentation in a scientific conference
• an independent or co-authored publication
• a presentation of results for stakeholders
• an integrated part of a larger publication from the project. In this case, the student and the supervisor must indicate which part of the publication the student is responsible for.
• a policy-brief, summarizing the main findings as well as suggesting the implications and recommendations of these findings
• or other output approved by the course coordinator and the supervisor

The scientific outcome can be submitted as an individual or as a joint work.

3. In addition to the scientific output from the project participation, each student will deliver an individual report of between 1000 - 3000 words from the research training. This report should contain a critical reflection of the learning process as well as the student's individual contribution, uses of method or implication of the produced knowledge.

The work should amount to the equivalent of 6 weeks of full time studies.

The following coursework requirement must be completed and approved by the given deadline in order for the student to sit the final exam:

The student will choose about 500 pages for a reading list that is thematically, methodologically and scientifically relevant for the scientific outcome.

Reading lists that are not approved after two submissions will disqualify students from submitting the final exam paper.

All aids are permitted, as long as the rules for source referencing are complied with

Pass / fail

The student's work will be evaluated by the course coordinator and training supervisor.
