SOS1120 Professional interaction in social work Course description

In this course, the students develop an understanding of how the performance of social work is rooted in the profession’s theoretical foundation. The course provides knowledge about different factors that can affect relationships and professional cooperation with other people.  

Through skills training in groups, the students will learn about what it means to practise social work. Together with their group, they will practise developing their professional expertise. This takes place through group work, role play and the use of cases that concern interacting with people in difficult life situations. The students are also trained in handling their own emotions when working with people in difficult life situations.  

The course comprises the first of two levels of skills training. 

I dette emnet skal studenten integrere kunnskap fra tidligere teoriemner og anvende denne i praksis. Studentene skal utføre grunnleggende stell og pleie, administrere forordnede legemidler, samt tilegne seg en helhetlig forståelse for ulike omsorgsbehov hos eldre og kronisk syke. Studentene skal sette seg inn i rammer for tjenesteytingen, ha fokus på brukermedvirkning og tverrfaglig samarbeid. Emnet går på heltid over 6 uker.

Teaching methods vary between lectures (e-lectures), seminars and student-active learning methods/group work.  

The following compulsory activities must have been approved in order for the student to take the exam: 

1. Compulsory participation in skills training 

The minimum attendance requirement for skills training in groups is 80%. If a student’s absence exceeds 20% but is lower than 40%, a compensatory coursework requirement will be set. The coursework requirement must be completed and approved by the given deadline. Absence in excess of 40% will result in loss of the right to take the exam. 

The reason why attendance is compulsory is that the student will in this way acquire competence necessary to meet the objectives of the course that they would be unable to acquire from solely reading the syllabus and/or taking the exam.  

Compulsory activities must be completed and approved by the given deadline in order for the student to take the exam. 

The course concludes with an oral exam in small groups, where the students make a presentation relating to a topic and skills relating to professional interaction. The group will be given a topic and/or questions to prepare 48 hours before the first day of the exam. 

Candidates who fail or who were absent from the ordinary exam for a valid reason can take a resit/rescheduled exam.
