HETEK4000 Samspill i helse og teknologi Emneplan

Technological development driven by science and innovation is crucial for a sustainable future healthcare system. The process of developing, implementing, and utilising new technology requires interdisciplinary collaboration, active user involvement and understanding of the roles of public and private stakeholders. Stakeholders include the higher education sector, the specialist- and municipal health service, user organisations, as well as enterprises.

This course introduces key concepts related to technological research and development, user involvement and engagement, system design, and innovation. Students will explore how new technology can contribute to sustainable solutions in health care services and health related research. Reflection about ethical challenges posed by new technology, and the advantages and obstacles of interdisciplinary collaborations will also be central in the course.

Students must have been admitted to the Master’s Programme in Health and Technology.

After completing the course, the student should have the following learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge, skills and general competence:

Knowledge

The student

• can account for key concepts related to technological development, system design and innovation
• has knowledge of different stakeholders and their role in the health service and in health related research
• can describe suitable professional tools and methods for identifying user needs and assessing their functional level through user oriented thinking
• can describe important factors that promote or hinder the implementation of technology in practice

is familiar with some relevant technological solutions used in diagnostic tools, therapy, health promotion or rehabilitation work

Skills

The student

• can assess some established and new relevant user oriented methods in research and development work in health and technology
• can reflect on ethical issues relating to cases from a health and technology perspective
• can actively engage in interdisciplinary discussions and collaborative group work

can use future scenarios to discuss technological developments in their own field both nationally and internationally

General competence

The student

• can reflect upon opportunities for innovation within the field of health and technology, e.g. new sustainable solutions, working methods, services or products, with the help of user orientation, system design and critical thinking
• can identify and reflect upon disciplinary differences, possible barriers, and ways of integrating their own professional background and competence in an interdisciplinary collaboration

The work and teaching methods used will be case-focused and include group work with practical exercises and thematic lectures involving contributions from practitioners in the municipal and specialist health services, business and industry and other special interest organisation.

Efforts will be made to ensure that the cases used reflect how interdisciplinary collaboration will take place in the workplace. The case studies will be based on different user needs. This orientation to systems, services and processes provides an approach to the many zones of interaction between health and technology.

Students will work in groups of 4-6 students. After an initial theoretical introduction and user orientation, the students will prepare proposals for a case based on an overall common issue at the intersection between health and technology. Depending on the case, efforts will be made to link the group to external stakeholders they can have a dialogue with during the course. Activities will vary between theory review and practical group work.

Emnet gir studentene grunnleggende kunnskaper og ferdigheter i budsjett og regnskap (eksternregnskap) i privat, kommunal og statlig sektor, samt en innføring i bruk av regneark i budsjett og regnskap. Emnet skal sammen med andre økonomifag gi studentene et grunnlag for å utføre oppgaver innenfor regnskap og økonomi i privat og offentlig sektor.

Undervisningsspråk er norsk.

Ingen forkunnskapskrav. 

Studenten skal etter å ha fullført emnet ha følgende totale læringsutbytte definert i kunnskap, ferdigheter og generell kompetanse:

Generell kompetanse

Studenten kan

• Lage enkle modeller for budsjett og regnskap i regneark
• Forklare grunnleggende forskjeller mellom budsjett og regnskap i privat, kommunal og statlig sektor

Undervisningen veksler mellom forelesninger, og løsning og gjennomgang av oppgaver i regneark.

For å kunne framstille seg til eksamen må studenten ha et godkjent arbeidskrav som består av 3 deler:

• Del 1: Budsjett og regnskap i privat sektor
• Del 2: Budsjett og regnskap i kommunal sektor
• Del 3: Budsjett og regnskap i statlig sektor

Arbeidskravet skal løses individuelt. 

Arbeidskravet må være gjennomført og godkjent innen fastlagt frist for at studenten skal kunne framstille seg til eksamen. Dersom arbeidskravet ikke blir godkjent, gis det anledning til å levere et kontearbeidskrav én gang. 

Eksamen i emnet er en individuell skoleeksamen på fem timer.
