MAIKT4200 Pedagogical Innovation and Prototyping Course description

See general rules in the programme plan. Students must have the following course work requirements approved before examination:

A portfolio documenting 3-5 prototypes produced and tested throughout the semester. This can be a collection of photos, videos, short texts, as well as the prototypes themselves.

The purpose of the course work requirements is for the students to obtain experience in pedagogical prototyping and thereby obtain an understanding of theoretical concepts and themes of the course. As an alternative leading to the same goal, one of the course work requirements may be replaced by external activities.

Course work requirement 1:

• The students should develop and document 1-2 prototypes in groups of 2-5 students, applying design tools discussed in the course. The prototypes shall be presented to the class. Time spent on each presentation should be 10-15 minutes.

• Each group presents feedback on 1 prototype made by another group. Feedback should be given orally, and last for 5 minutes.

Course work requirement 2:

• The students should develop and document a new prototype in groups of 2-5 students and present it to the class using techniques different from course work requirement 1. Time spent on each presentation should be 10-15 minutes
• Each group presents feedback on another group’s second prototype. Feedback should be given orally, and last for 5 minutes

Course work requirement 3:

• Students should develop a third prototype in groups of 2-5 students or individually. This can be based on earlier work from the semester or be a new concept. The third prototype should be presented orally: duration 20 minutes.
• To satisfy course work requirement 3, the students should create a portfolio documenting the previous course work requirements and activities, and a reflection note using concepts and theories from the reading list to describe the innovation process. This text should be 1500 +/- words.

Course work requirements 1 or 2 can be replaced by external activities:

• either an internship, including participation in the development or maintenance of digital resources. The internship must be agreed with the course leaders and documented in a written report of 700 words +/- 10%.
• or courses in another master's program at OsloMet or other educational institution. The course or subject must be design-oriented, agreed with the course leaders, and documented with an exam or certificate of participation combined with a self-evaluation documented in a written report of 700 words +/- 10%.

Examination support material is permitted.

The grades pass and fail will be used. See assessment criteria in the program plan.

Individual oral examination where students discuss their portfolio and how it relates to the course literature, duration: 20 minutes.

New/postponed exam will be organised in the same way as the ordinary exam. A revised prototype and portfolio can be submitted.

Examination support material is permitted.

The grades pass and fail will be used. See assessment criteria in the program plan.

One external and one internal examiner.
