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, innovation and user involvement and engagement. 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, service 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 through user-oriented thinking
• is familiar with some relevant technological solutions e.g. artificial intelligence, used in diagnostic tools, therapy, health promotion or rehabilitation work

Skills

The student

• can assess user needs with some established and new relevant user-oriented methods related to 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 discuss technological developments in their own field both nationally and internationally

General competence

The student

• can reflect upon opportunities and illustrate ideas for future innovations within the field of health and technology, e.g. new sustainable solutions, working methods, services or products, with the help of user orientation 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.

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.

Emnet omhandler kjennskap til læreryrket og yrkene i utdanningsprogrammet restaurant- og matfag. Det gir innsikt i lovverk og styringsdokumenter, skolens og yrkesopplæringens plass og rolle i kultur og samfunn. Det omhandler også læringsstrategier, yrkesidentitet, yrkesstolthet og yrkesetikk. Faglig innhold vil være forankret i relevant teori om yrkeskunnskap, baseres på observasjon og kartlegging av særtrekk og fellestrekk yrkene imellom, samt analyse av yrkeskompetanse, produksjons- og prosessdokumentasjon av yrkene i utdanningsprogrammet.

Arbeids- og undervisningsformene som benyttes er varierte og består av blant annet erfaringsdeling, forelesning, øvingsoppgaver, arbeid i sensorisk laboratorium, dialogbasert undervisning og gruppearbeid

Individuell muntlig presentasjon.

• En digital historiefortelling som oppsummer egen læring forankret i relevant teori for emnet etter nærmere retningslinjer fra emneansvarlig. Tid: 30 minutter (ca. 20 minutter presentasjon, og ca. 10 minutter til oppklarende spørsmål)

Ny og utsatt eksamen

• Ny og utsatt eksamen arrangeres som ordinær eksamen
