Fairytales and Creativity is one of the courses under Nordic Childhoods. It focuses on Nordic culture where nature plays an important role in society, aesthetics and in work with children. Joint events with the other Nordic Childhoods courses, are integrated as overnight trips and outdoor excursions. We also visit schools, kindergartens and other institutions. We focus on play, learning by doing, experience and workshops.

In the Fairytales and Creativity course we ask: Why do stories appeal to modern man? In what way can stories contribute to increasing knowledge about today's cultural expressions, and about ourselves? How can we use stories in contexts relevant to different pedagogical approaches? The objective of the course is to introduce students to the storytelling tradition of western culture and the main theories of myths and basic mythology. Important elements in the course are: the difference between myths, fairytales and legends; structural theories, psychological theories, eclectic theories; myths and religion.

Arbeidskravet består av en skriftlig individuell oppgave. Omfang: 1200 ord (+/- 10 %). Oppgaven skal ta utgangspunkt i planleggingen av et utviklingsarbeid som studenter utfører i barnehagen (kunnskapsdeling og utprøving av ny faglig kunnskap i eget kollegium i barnehagen), knyttet til et selvvalgt tema i emnet. 

Arbeidskravet skal bidra til studentenes kompetanseutvikling i flerkulturell pedagogikk og arbeid med nyankomne barn. Dette danner grunnlag for videre studieprogresjon og arbeidet mot eksamen. 

Arbeidskravet må leveres innen fristen og vurderes til "Godkjent" eller "Ikke godkjent. Arbeidskrav som leveres innen fristen, men som vurderes til "ikke godkjent", vil få kunne leveres på nytt, i bearbeidet form. Det nye forsøket vil ha egen frist.

Antall forsøk på arbeidskrav

• Alle studenter har to forsøk på arbeidskrav. 
• En student som får vurderingen "ikke godkjent", ikke leverer eller ikke møter uten gyldig fravær til et arbeidskrav, har brukt ett forsøk.
• Individuelt skriftlig arbeidskrav: alle studenter har mulighet til å levere til første og andre innlevering. Tredje innlevering er kun for studenter med gyldig fravær på første eller andre innlevering.
• Dato for første og andre forsøk av arbeidskrav, samt en tredje dato for studenter med gyldig fravær, skal være satt av emneansvarlig i forkant av utlevering av arbeidskravet.
