Emne 1 gjev brei kunnskap om literacy (tekstkompetanse) generelt og elevtekstar spesielt, både når det gjeld elevane si forståing av tekst og elevane sin eigen skapande produksjon av munnlege, skriftlege og samansette tekstar. Studentane vil få fordjupa kunnskap om eldre og nyare barne- og ungdomslitteratur, både skjønnlitteratur og sakprosa, på norsk, dansk og svensk og i omsetjing frå samisk, og om valg av litteratur og arbeidsmåtar. I tråd med det nye læreplanverket, vil studiet vektleggje djupnelæring, tekst i kontekst og dei fagovergripande tema som folkehelse og livsmeistring, demokrati og medborgarskap og berekraftig utvikling. I undervisninga vil det bli lagt vekt på å utvikle kunnskap og ferdigheiter som rustar studentane til å bruke kreative og utforskande arbeidsmåtar i norskfaget.

Varied forms of learning are used based on the principles of tertiary vocational didactics, e.g. practice-oriented learning, experience-oriented learning and problem-oriented learning. Sharing of experience is given emphasis in the programme. The students’ own tertiary vocational teaching practice will be key in their development and learning work.

Students will document four coursework requirements; these are linked to the learning outcomes. Two individual and two group-based requirements (can be adapted on justification to and special agreement with the lecturer). The coursework requirements concern both the student’s own tertiary vocational teaching practice and the learning community in the programme. The coursework requirements must be approved before the student can take the exam. Required coursework that is not approved can be reworked and submitted for re-assessment twice before the ordinary exam.

Coursework requirement 1: Planning and implementation of learning work (in groups of two or three students).

The purpose is to practise the inductive vocational teaching method relevant to planning and implementing learning work.

Coursework requirement 2: Plan for teaching practice (individual)
