TLP6200 Special Needs Education and Diversity in Traffic Education Course description

The objective of the course is to develop a critical and analytical way of thinking about the child welfare service’s activities, and to seek a deeper understanding of the basis and context of one’s own professional practice, role and function. The course is based on the students’ experience of child welfare work, and the students work methodically on critical reflection and analyse concrete experiences from their practical training in seminar groups.

The practical training comprises four weeks of work in the child welfare field, and can be carried out at the student’s own place of work or other practical training establishment. Cooperation agreements must be signed with the practical training establishments to regulate responsibilities and roles and, where relevant, development and innovation collaboration.

The language of instruction is Norwegian.

The course will use varied, student-active work methods. The teaching will be given digital and physical, in addition to blended learning with seminars on campus during the course. Work and teaching methods include digital and physical lectures, individual literature studies and written work, oral presentations, group discussions and supervision. Up to two hours of guidance is given on the project description.
