TGSP1400 Norwegian Sign Language 2B Course description

Studentene skal videreutvikle sine språklige ferdigheter slik at de kan forstå og selv delta i samtaler om de fleste av dagliglivets hendelser og gjøremål, og slik at de kan forstå videotekster om ulike emner fortalt av tegnspråkbrukere i ulike aldre og med ulik bakgrunn. Studentene skal også videreutvikle sine kunnskaper om norsk tegnspråk og dets utvikling gjennom årene.

Emneplan ble godkjent av utdanningsutvalget LUI 29. november 2021 og gjelder fra høsten 2022.

Eksamen i emnet er en individuell hjemmeeksamen over en periode på 10 dager. Besvarelsen skal ha et omfang på 10 sider / 23 000 tegn inkludert mellomrom. I tillegg kommer forside og litteraturliste, eventuelt et forord. Skrifttype og skriftstørrelse: Arial / Calibri 12pkt. Linjeavstand: 1,5.

Alle hjelpemidler er tillatt så lenge regler for kildehenvisning følges.

Gradert skala A-F.

Følgende arbeidskrav må være godkjent før eksamen kan avlegges:

• Arbeidskrav 1: Gruppeoppgave på video, inntil 2,5 minutter per gruppemedlem. Av praktiske hensyn bør gruppen bestå av tre studenter
• Arbeidskrav 2: Individuell avlesningsøvelse på universitetets digitale plattform(er) der studentene avleser en tegnspråktekst på video, og besvarer et visst antall spørsmål knyttet til tegnspråkteksten. Studenten må ha minimum 80% korrekte svar i avlesningsøvelsen.
• Arbeidskrav 3: Individuell flervalgstest på universitetets digitale plattform(er) med spørsmål knyttet til norsk døvehistorie
• Arbeidskrav 4: Individuell oppgave på video der studenten skal gjenfortelle en historie på norsk tegnspråk

Formålet med arbeidskravene er å gi studenten tilstrekkelig veiledning i emnets faglige innhold og praktisk øvelse. Omfang vil spesifiseres i oppgavetekster eller individuelt i samarbeid med faglærer. Tidsfrister gjøres elektronisk tilgjengelig for studentene ved semesterstart.

For generelle regler om arbeidskrav, se programplan.

The legal basis for this plan is laid down in Act no. 15 relating to Universities and University Colleges of 1 April 2005 and the Regulations Relating to the Degree of Philosophiae Doctor (PhD) at Oslo Metropolitan University (hereinafter referred to as "the PhD Regulations").

The PhD programme in Health Sciences is a three -year full-time study. Candidates who successfully complete the programme will earn 180 credits and qualify for a PhD in Health Sciences.

The PhD programme in Health Sciences has an interdisciplinary focus. Key elements in the programme are interventions in health promotion, preventive health care, treatment, rehabilitation and care. Health is a complex and comprehensive phenomenon that involves interaction between biological, physical, psychological, behavioral, and social dimensions. Although the respective professions and disciplines place different emphasis on dimensions of health, they share a common understanding of the goal to promote health and quality of life.* In the training component of the PhD programme, candidates learn about research and work methods that can directly or indirectly contribute towards knowledge-based assessment and interventions at individual and systemic levels. The training component will enhance the depth and breadth of the candidates' professional knowledge so that they develop an independent and reflective approach to both their research and to that of others, as well as to the role of research in a broader context. It will also support the candidates in their work on their thesis.

* Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. Disease in the Western medical paradigm is the malfunctioning or maladaptation of biologic and psychophysiological processes in the individual; whereas illness represents personal, interpersonal, and cultural reactions to disease or discomfort.

The PhD programme in Health Sciences is offered by the Faculty of Health Sciences, which has a long experience in educating professional practitioners. The faculty trains professional practitioners in the disciplines of: biomedical laboratory sciences, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, prosthetics and orthotics, radiography, pharmacy, nursing, dental technology, and social education. The faculty also offers training in public nutrition, behavior analysis, and management, among others. Research training is often linked to professional programmes and therefore promotes research collaboration within the field of practice.

There is a need for better integration and coordination of health services with large user groups, to include more emphasis on preventive measures. Coordination involves several different health care professions and actors and is contingent on cooperation. Many actors are involved in research projects aimed at developing the knowledge that will be needed to meet future challenges: municipalities, health trusts, universities, university colleges, research institutes, patient organisations and competence centers in the health and care sector. This is also highly relevant for needs-led research which seeks to answer questions that have not already been addressed through previous research (knowledge gaps) and whose relevance has been legitimized and prioritized by patients and other individuals receiving services, relatives, and/or healthcare professionals. The need to train personnel with research competence in many health professions is therefore significant. Strengthening multidisciplinary** and interdisciplinary research is vital for developing better care pathways for individuals with complex needs who would benefit from cooperation between the respective professions.

**By "multidisciplinary" it is meant combining input from multiple disciplines aimed at resolving a common problem.

Research training in health sciences offers opportunities to apply for academic positions at universities, university colleges, health trusts, and research institutes as well as for positions in other areas in the public and private sectors with a need for competence in the health sciences. The PhD programme in Health Sciences will provide professional practitioners the opportunity to gain research competence and thereby contribute to improving coordination within the health and care sectors. Furthermore, the programme will help establish sound research environments and provide a basis for research-oriented training and practice. The programme also qualifies candidates for teaching and supervising students and colleagues in health sciences.

The target group for the programme comprises individuals with an interest in the health sciences. Potential candidates may be admitted directly from studies or from work life in the case of professional practitioners with master's degrees seeking to enhance their levels of competence and knowledge or from research institutes involved in health science projects. Applicants from other professional backgrounds who wish to participate in health science projects may also be admitted.
