Course history

Introduction

The teaching is mainly designed with "flipped classroom" and learning activities in class and smaller groups. Digital learning resources such as digital lectures, videos and films will be available to the students in advance. Students are recommended to use these resources and to be prepared before the lectures and the seminars. The students are specially recommended to participate at the presentation seminar since this seminar offers a unique opportunity for learning.

Learning outcomes

The following required coursework must be approved before the student can take the exam:

  • Compulsory attendance at the seminar on literature search (normally week 1 of the course).Compensatory work requirement if not present: The student must choose a different health claim, create a PICO based on this health claim, and describe a search for this PICO in Up-To-Date, Health Library according to guidelines or in Cochrane Library. The assignment is not academically assessed by the person with the course responsibility, but it will be registered (in Fagpersonweb) that the work requirement has been submitted and the student will find the registration in studentweb.
  • Compulsory attendance at the Help-desk seminar (normally week 2 of the course) where students/exam groups ask questions and receive answers/guidance on the exam assignment. Compensatory work requirement if not present: In case of absence, students must submit 2 questions to the exam assignment and provide an academic justification for the questions of up to 100 words. The assignment is not academically assessed by the person with the course responsibility, but it will be registered (in Fagpersonweb) that the work requirement has been submitted and the student will find the registration in studentweb.

Content

Videreutdanningen består av ett emne, VSHSO Seksuelle overgrep - Forebygging, avdekking og oppfølging (10 stp), som gjennomføres på deltid over et semester. Emnet er inndelt i moduler, som vil gjenspeiles i de digitale læringsressursene. Læringsressursene og samlinger/webseminarer er heldigitale. Det vil bli avholdt 4 webseminarer i løpet av emnet. Forventet studieinnsats er beregnet til ca. 12 timer pr. uke

Internasjonalisering

Økende globalisering av arbeidsmarkedet gjør internasjonal erfaring, språk- og kulturkunnskap viktig. Internasjonalisering gir også innsikt i globalisering generelt og bidrar til å oppnå bedre studiekvalitet og styrking av fagmiljøet ved utdanningen. Kunnskap om internasjonale forhold er også viktig for kunnskapsutviklingen.

Internasjonalisering skjer gjennom fagmiljøets kontakt og samarbeid med kolleger i andre land. Videreutdanningen har som mål å rekruttere utenlandske studenter som behersker ett av de skandinaviske språkene, og markedsføres derfor i alle nordiske land. Pensum består både av norsk og internasjonal fag- og forskningslitteratur.

The module also aims to provide students with experience with and knowledge of analyzing products in the various cultural contexts of which they are a part.The student will be introduced to the use of communication methods and presentation techniques and learn how to communicate a message to a target audience.
