Learning outcomes

Se fagplanen.

Teaching and learning methods

Supervised practical training with adapted learning situations. Teaching methods such as written and oral assignments, group work and self-study are also used.

Shifts

Practical training normally requires 30 hours’ attendance at the practical training establishment and one study day per week. A normal practical training day lasts for 7.5 hours. The students must plan their attendance, and the schedule must be approved by the lecturer and practical training supervisor. The students should, as far as possible, follow the shifts of the nurse supervising them in order to experience good learning situations.

Course requirements

The following coursework requirements must be met before a student can receive an assessment for the course:

  • Specification of learning outcomes for the course
  • Written individual assignment with oral presentation in the practical training arena. Scope: up to 2,000 words. The syllabus selected by the student must be used

The students receive written feedback from their fellow students on this assignment.

Assessment

Assessment of practical training.

The assessment is based on the learning outcomes for the course, the student's specification of the learning outcomes and the formative assessment made of the student during the course.

Students’ practical training can only be assessed if their attendance is sufficiently high.

  • Less than 10% absence: The student can complete the practical training course as normal.
  • 10-20% absence: If possible, the student can make up for the practical training missed. This must be agreed with the practical training supervisor and the supervisor at the university.
  • More than 20% absence: The student must retake the whole practical training course.
