Interdisciplinary Advanced Programme in Mental Health and Addiction - Full Time Programme description

Praktisk-pedagogisk utdanning for yrkesfag tilbys både som heltidsstudium over ett år, campusbasert på deltid over to år og nett- og samlingsbasert på deltid.

På deltidsstudiet er undervisningsdagene er primært på campus, mens på det nett og samlingsbaserte er 80% av undervisningsdagene på nett og 20% campus. På begge tilbudene kan asynkrone samlinger forekommer.

Det faglige innholdet er likt i de tre variantene av studiet, det er kun organiseringen som er ulik.

Studiet har et omfang på 60 studiepoeng som består av:

• pedagogikk, 30 studiepoeng
• yrkesdidaktikk, 30 studiepoeng

Studiet er delt i to obligatoriske emner. Det første emnet vektlegger individ- og gruppeperspektivet, mens emne to har hovedfokus på organisasjons- og samfunnsperspektivet. Hvert emne har obligatorisk praksis som en integrert del.

Innholdet i studiet er organisert etter spiralprinsippet. Det vil si at samme tema kan komme igjen flere ganger i løpet av studiet og i begge emner, men med ulik vekting.

Hospitering

I begge emner skal studenten, i tillegg til veiledet pedagogisk praksis, hospitere to dager pr. emne i en bedrift innenfor eget utdanningsprogram for å oppnå breddeforståelse. Hospiteringen skal organiseres av studenten selv, men tidspunkt, sted og innhold skal godkjennes av emneansvarlig. I tillegg skal det foreligge en bekreftelse fra bedriften på gjennomført hospitering.

For å få et best mulig læringsutbytte av PPU-studiet, kreves det at studentene er aktive deltakere i undervisning, og at de bidrar med sine refleksjoner og erfaringer i læringsfellesskapet enten dette er på nett eller campus. I begge emner gjøres det bruk av varierte undervisningsformer, blant annet dialogbaserte forelesninger, prosessuell undervisning, rollespill, individuelt arbeid, gruppearbeid og erfaringsdeling. Det vil også forekomme arbeid mellom undervisningsdagene. Undervisning er forskningsbasert, praksisnær og fremtidsrettet.

Universitetets læringsplattform brukes, og alle studenter må disponere pc og hodetelefoner med mikrofon og ha tilgang til internett.

Veiledet pedagogisk praksis

Alle studenter skal gjennomføre veiledet pedagogisk praksis på ungdomstrinnet (10 dager deltakende- observasjonspraksis) og i videregående opplæring (50 dager) i eget programområde. Praksisopplæringen og undervisningen på campus/nett betraktes som likeverdige læringsarenaer, og det skal derfor være sammenheng med undervisning på campus og læring i pedagogisk praksis. Praksisopplæringen skal bidra til å sikre at studentene oppnår relevant kompetanse og skal omfatte de aktiviteter som inngår i en lærers daglig arbeid. Studentene skal også oppnå en helthetlig forståelse av skolen som organisasjon og plass i samfunnet. Pedagogisk praksis er organisert i tre perioder og gjennomføres slik:

Praksisperiode 1

Studenter skal gjennomføre 25 dager pedagogisk praksis i videregående opplæring i eget programområde. Første praksisperiode gjennomføres første semester.

Praksisperiode 2

Studentene skal gjennomføre 10 dager pedagogisk praksis på ungdomstrinnet (8.-10. trinn). Andre praksisperiode gjennomføres i første semester.

Praksisperiode 3

Studenter skal gjennomføre 25 dager pedagogisk praksis i videregående opplæring i eget programområde. Tredje praksisperiode gjennomføres i andre semester.

Det er et krav om 100 % tilstedeværelse i praksis i alle praksisperiodene. Ved fravær må dagene tas igjen etter avtale med praksissted og emneansvarlig/praksisseksjonen ved LUI.

Alle praksisperioder skal være veiledet, variert og vurdert og hver periode vurderes etter vurderingsuttrykkene; Bestått/ikke bestått. Vurderingen ansees som et samarbeid mellom praksislærer og OsloMet -lærer, men hovedansvaret ligger hos praksislærer.

Det skal være progresjon gjennom hele praksisopplæringen i videregående opplæringen. Det er utarbeidet en egen praksisguide til studiet.

All pedagogisk praksis må være gjennomført og vurdert til karakteren Bestått før studenten får fremstille seg til eksamen i tilhørende emne. Hvis en student ikke består en praksisperiode, kan denne gjennomføres på nytt. Får studenten vurdert samme praksisperiode til karakteren Ikke bestått to ganger må studiet avbrytes, jf. § 8-2 i Forskrift om studier og eksamen ved OsloMet - storbyuniversitetet.

Det er utarbeidet en egen praksisguide for studiet, se mer utfyllende informasjon om veiledet praksis i denne.

Redaksjonell endring på emne 6100 14.04.2023

Clinical training is part of the course VPSYPRA11/VPSYDPRA11 Development and Practice of Interpersonal Competence and constitutes 20 credits. Two different forms of clinical training are part of the course (both forms of clinical training include compulsory groups and seminars with a supervisor from the university):

;

• The project-oriented training lasts approx. three weeks and will be supervised by a supervisor from the university.

The theme of project-oriented practice is the organisation of mental health services in an improvement perspective. The students work on the topic by carrying out a project where they gather knowledge and experience from a professional in a relevant field of practice.

;

• The clinical training takes place over eight weeks of 30 hours, 240 hours in total, and the student will be supervised by a clinical training supervisor and a supervisor from the university

The student will develop concrete learning outcomes in collaboration with the clinical training supervisor. The student’s learning objectives must be approved by the supervisor. The student shall be given a minimum of one hour’s supervision from the clinical training supervisor per week.

;

The clinical training supervisor is responsible for guiding the student during the clinical training. The clinical training supervisor must have an advanced education within the field. The supervisor from the university is responsible for guiding the student during the project-oriented training and period of clinical training.

;

The clinical training will normally be carried out in places affiliated with OsloMet – Oslo Metropolitan University through cooperation agreements. The student may apply to complete the clinical training elsewhere. If the application is granted, the students is responsible for covering any expenses relating to this. The clinical training cannot be completed in the students' own workplace, i.e. the student's own unit, ward or similar.

;

The course VPSYPRA11/VPSYDPRA11 concludes with a written assignment where theoretical knowledge is applied to challenges relating to the clinical training or other phenomena relating to the field of mental health care.

;

Compulsory attendance at the clinical training.

The attendance at the supervised professional training is compulsory.

• The student must attend at least 90 % of the scheduled time
• The student will be allowed to make up for absence of between 10 and 20 per cent by agreement with the clinical training supervisor and the supervisor from the university
• If a student's absence exceeds 20%, he/she will fail the clinical training*
• The attendance requirement cannot be deviated from due to illness or for other reasons

;

*If illness prevents the student from attending the clinical training so that their absence exceeds the permitted amount, the student is required to present a valid medical certificate for all days of absence in excess of 10% of the scheduled time in order for the absence to be deemed valid. The student's attempt at taking the clinical training will then not count.

;

If the student terminates the period of clinical training without a valid reason, for instance by leaving the programme, the course will be registered as failed and the student will have used one attempt. Students who fail the clinical training twice will normally have to leave the programme.

;

Assessment of the professional training

During the clinical training, students will be given a midway assessment and a final assessment where the student's performance is assessed in relation to the learning outcomes for the clinical training course VPSYPRA11/VPSYDPRA11.

Clinical training is assessed as pass/fail by the clinical training supervisor and the supervisor at the university. Pursuant to the Act relating to Universities and University Colleges, the university is responsible for the final assessment of the student.

Reference is also made to the Regulations relating to Studies and Examinations at OsloMet -;Oslo Metropolitan University Chapter 8. Supervised clinical training. Number of attempts.

OsloMet -;Oslo Metropolitan University has a considerable number of agreements on teacher and student exchanges with educational institutions in and outside Europe. The programme is represented in international networks. In some courses, the students will attend lectures given by foreign guest speakers.

Internationalisation takes place both through activities on campus in Norway and through periods of study at institutions abroad. Students can apply to take the clinical training abroad. It is preferable that students do this at institutions that OsloMet -;Oslo Metropolitan University cooperates with.

The programme's focus on multicultural and global challenges is a contribution to internationalisation. Literature in the English language and international research is part of the programme's syllabus.

Required coursework is all types of work and tests that are conditions for being permitted to take the exam. Coursework requirements in this programme are written assignments, oral presentations, compulsory attendance, supervision etc. Required coursework is carried out individually or in groups.

Coursework requirements are set in order to promote the student's progress and development, and to ensure his/her participation where needed in order to acquire the intended learning outcomes. Coursework requirements are intended to contribute to in-depth knowledge and integration of the various knowledge areas and help the students to reflect on their own relational skills. Coursework requirements are also meant to encourage students to seek out and acquire new knowledge.;

Compulsory attendance

Attendance is compulsory, unless the student can acquire the same knowledge and skills through self-study. This means that it is compulsory to attend at least 80% of the seminars, study groups and; supervision groups. For attendance during the clinical training, please refer to the chapter on clinical training.

If a student exceeds the maximum limit for absence, study group supervisor and person respnsible for the course will consider whether it is possible to compensate for absence by meeting alternative requirements, for instance individual oral or written assignments. If it is not possible to compensate for absence, the student loses the right to take the exam and must re-take the course the following year. Whether or not it is possible to compensate for absence depends on the extent of the student's absence and which activities he/she has missed. It is the responsibility of the student to keep track of his/her own attendance.;

Approval of written coursework requriments

The required coursework is assessed as approved/not approved. The students have two attempts at the written coursework requirements, with the option of applying to the person responsible for the course for a third attempt. Required coursework that is not approved must be improved and approved before the student can take the exam. Required coursework that is not approved might cause the student to fall behind in the programme.

The rules concerning cheating in the Act relating to Universities and University Colleges, the Regulations relating to Studies and Examinations at OsloMet - Oslo Metropolitan University, and the Guidelines for handling Cheating/Attempts at Cheating at OsloMet - Oslo Metropolitan University also apply to coursework requirements.

The assessments are carried out in accordance with the Act relating to Universities and University Colleges, the Regulations relating to Studies and Examinations, and the Guidelines for Appointment and Use of Examiners at the University. For assessment during the clinical training, please refer to the chapter on clinical training.

;

Assessment

The grading system in use is pass/fail or a grade scale with letter grades from A to F, where A is the highest grade, E is the poorest pass grade and F is a fail. In connection with group exams, all students in the group are awarded the same grade.;

Resit and rescheduled exams Resit and rescheduled exams are carried out in the same manner as the ordinary exam unless otherwise specified in the course description. In special cases, resit and rescheduled exams in courses with group exams may be held as individual exams.

;

Appeals against grades

Grades awarded for written exams can be appealed. It is not possible to appeal the grades awarded for oral and practical exams. In connection with a group exam, the result of an appeal will only have consequences for the candidate(s) who submitted the appeal. The other students will keep their original grade.

The title of the in-depth paper will be included in the transcript of the grades.

;

External programme supervisor

An external programme supervisor scheme exists for the programme. Over a two-year period, the external programme supervisor will carry out the following supervision of the programme:

• evaluate exam assignments and assessment criteria for grading in each selected course
• assess the connections between the programme description's learning outcome descriptions, teaching arrangements and types of assessment
• give the academic environment feedback and advice that can be used in the ongoing work on quality of education

;

The external supervisor will write an annual report on their work that will be included in the department's part of the university's quality assurance system.
