Introduction
Language of instruction: English (Norwegian if no English-speaking students have registered for the course)
This course covers the research process from the planning phase until completion of the master’s thesis, including literary searches and referencing, formulation of research questions/hypotheses/issues, choice of research method and development of a project description, as well as ethical assessments relating to the student’s own work. Formal requirements for the project description are also covered to enable the student to complete the project description for their master’s thesis by the end of the course.
Recommended preliminary courses
For å kunne fremstille seg til eksamen må følgende være godkjent:
- minimum 80 prosent tilstedeværelse i timeplanfestede seminarer og ferdighetstreninger
- individuell flervalgstest, inntil 2 timer etter nærmere gitte kriterier
Required preliminary courses
The student must have been admitted to the Master’s Degree Programme in Health Sciences, and have passed MAVIT4050 Theory of Science and Research Methods, 10 ECTS credits or equivalent.
Learning outcomes
After completing the course, the student should have the following learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge, skills and general competence:
Knowledge
The student
- can develop a research question for their master’s thesis
- can independently describe relevant academic frame of reference and/or context as a foundation for a project plan for the master’s thesis
Skills
The student
- can plan a research project and write a project description in a precise scientific format and language
- can carry out extensive and systematic literature searches relating to their own project description, summarise and discuss the findings of others, and cite sources correctly
- can reflect upon ethical issues related to the project
General competence
The student
- can analyse and deal critically with various sources of data and use them in scholarly arguments
- can critically assess relevant ethical norms and values related to the chosen method in the project plan
- can assess whether a research project requires various forms of registration or approval in accordance with the applicable legislation
Teaching and learning methods
The course will use varied, student-active work methods. The teaching will mainly be digital, in addition to blended learning with seminars on campus during the course. Work and teaching methods include digital lectures, individual literature studies and written work, oral presentations, group discussions and individual and group supervision. The student(s) will be offered up to two hours of supervision in connection with their project description.
Course requirements
The following must have been approved in order for the student to take the examination:
- compulsory attendance and participation at seminar days
- presentation of the student’s project plan for the master’s thesis with subsequent discussion in a plenary session
- the student must give written and oral feedback to a fellow student’s project plan (peer assessment/opponent)
Assessment
Emnet gir en grunnleggende forståelse av menneskekroppens oppbygning fra den enkelte celle til de store organsystemene og organenes funksjon. Kunnskap i topografisk anatomi er en forutsetning for å kunne lokalisere anatomiske strukturer fremstilt ved hjelp av bildediagnostiske metoder. På samme måte er fysiologi viktig for utførelse av dynamiske bildediagnostiske undersøkelser. Kompetansen er essensielt i faglig forsvarlig profesjonsutøvelse for radiografer.
Permitted exam materials and equipment
Studenten må være tatt opp på studiet.
Grading scale
Etter gjennomført emne har studenten følgende læringsutbytte definert i kunnskap og ferdigheter:
Kunnskap
Studenten kan
- forklare grunnleggende biokjemiske prosesser på celleplan og se dem i sammenheng med fysiologiske prosesser i kroppens organer
- gjøre rede for skjelett- og muskelsystemets anatomiske oppbygging
- forklare oppbygging av celler, vev, organer og organsystemer -
- forklare de fysiologiske prosesser i respirasjonssystemet og sirkulasjonssystemet
- beskrive sansenes- og forplantingssystemets anatomi og fysiologi
- forklare fysiologiske prosesser i nyrer og urinveier, fordøyelses- og nervesystemet
- forklare kroppens bevegelser, akser, plan og retninger
- beskrive akser, plan og retninger i bildediagnostisk materiale
Ferdigheter
Studenten kan
- anvende latinsk navn og benevning på muskler, ledd, ligamenter, nerver, stillinger, bevegelsesretninger, akser og plan
- identifisere ulike organer og strukturer i bildediagnostisk materiale
- utføre palpasjon av ulike knokler og ledd
Examiners
Arbeids- og undervisningsformene omfatter omvendt klasserom, forelesninger, seminarer, ferdighetstreninger og selvstudier. På seminarene fordyper studentene seg i fagstoffet. Digitale læringsressurser benyttes i emnet i form av videoforelesninger, digitale tester og øvingsoppgaver.
Overlapping courses
Individuell skriftlig eksamen under tilsyn, kombinasjon av flervalgs- og fritekstoppgaver, 3 timer.
