Innledning

Bacheloroppgaven kan dokumenteres og utføres på ulike måter underveis. Problemstilling for bachelor oppgaven skal godkjennes av veileder, og metoden må henge sammen med valgt problemstilling.

Hele utenlandsoppholdet varer i minimum to måneder. Alle studenter skal:

  • delta i forberedelsesprogram hvor studentene får innsikt i temaer knyttet til det forestående utenlandsoppholdet
  • delta på oppgave og metodeseminar før utreise
  • gjennomføre tre veiledninger med tildelt veileder. Veiledningen kan skje via skype eller annet egnet medium, og kan gjennomføres enkeltvis eller i gruppe
  • loggføre daglige erfaringer som utgangspunkt for ukentlige refleksjonssamtaler med medstudenter
  • fordype seg i selvvalgt pensum
  • gjennomføre et tre til fire ukers lokalt praksisopphold etter avtalt plan.
  • delta i studieopplegg ved samarbeidsinstitusjonen, tilsvarende om lag én uke, og eventuelt workshops for ansatte innen barnehagefeltet, arrangert av samarbeidsinstitusjonen.
  • undersøke, observere og dokumentere fenomener som er interessante for kommende profesjonsutøvelse
  • delta i eventuelle relevante møter med lokale samarbeidspartnere.

Perioden avsluttes med innlevering av bacheloroppgave.

Anbefalte forkunnskaper

Grade scale A - F

Læringsutbytte

Avsluttende vurdering gjennomføres i vårsemesteret. Eksamen består av en bacheloroppgave:

  • Bacheloroppgaven skal være på 7000 ord (+/- 10 prosent).
  • Dersom man i tillegg til fagteksten velger å gjennomføre et praktisk og/eller digitalt arbeid, skal fagteksten være på 3500 ord (+/- 10 prosent), i tillegg skal studenten levere inn dokumentasjon av det praktiske arbeidet. Arbeidet må være organisert slik at sensors tid til å se/høre gjennom det hele ikke overstiger 20 minutter.

Bacheloroppgaven er i utgangspunktet et individuelt arbeid. Dersom studenter samarbeider om bacheloroppgaven, skal hver enkelt students medvirkning i arbeidet fremgå klart av et følgenotat. Følgenotatet skal inneholde refleksjon over arbeidsfordeling og læringsutbytte av samarbeidsprosessen. Det er ikke mulig å være flere enn to studenter sammen om fagteksten. Det kan utvikles et praktisk arbeid sammen i større gruppe. Fagteksten må da skrives individuelt eller to og to studenter sammen. Hver innleverte oppgave må ha en unik problemstilling.

Dersom to studenter velger å levere oppgaven sammen:

  • Bacheloroppgaven være på 12 000 ord (+/- 10 prosent) når fagtekst er eneste dokumentasjonsform.
  • 6000 ord (+/- 10 prosent) ved valg av en praktisk del, sammen med dokumentasjon av det praktiske arbeidet. Arbeidet må være organisert slik at sensors tid til å se/høre gjennom det hele ikke overstiger 30 minutter.

Ny/utsatt eksamen

Ny og utsatt eksamen gjennomføres på samme måte som ved ordinær eksamen. Ved første ny og utsatt eksamen kan det leveres en bearbeidet versjon av bacheloroppgaven. Ved senere forsøk leveres ny bacheloroppgave.

Studentens rettigheter og plikter ved ny/utsatt eksamen framgår av forskrift om studier og eksamen ved OsloMet. Studenter er selv ansvarlige for å melde seg opp til eventuell ny/utsatt eksamen.

Arbeids- og undervisningsformer

Entrepreneurship is a relatively young field of research, where much of the theory development is inspired by research in sociology, psychology, economics and strategy. This course takes students through theoretical perspectives and research that have shaped the current understanding of innovation and entrepreneurial processes, with a particular focus on how such processes can contribute to value creation and societal change. Traditional models regarded innovation as a linear process that started with basic research and that over time contributed to new products that could be commercialised in a market.

Today, innovation processes are characterised as complex processes of co-creation, where interaction between actors with different approaches and framework conditions create new solutions through collaboration. In addition, research on entrepreneurship and innovation in the public sector is growing, broadening the scope from product to service. At the level of individuals and teams, entrepreneurial capacity is linked to an entrepreneurial mindset, while at the system level, entrepreneurial capacity is linked to the broader innovation ecosystem and the institutional framework of which the entrepreneur is a part. Students gain insight into theories of social change and into how individuals and institutions can work systematically to build and adapt to the innovation-driven ecosystems. This interaction between individual and system is important in understanding how innovation and entrepreneurial capacity are interlinked with the external environment.

The aim of the course is to provide a theoretical foundation that enables students to better understand innovation and entrepreneurial processes, accumulate knowledge, critically reflect, and to link their own entrepreneurial experiences to recent research. The course will help students to strengthen and better understand the theoretical foundation of their own own projects and of their own master's thesis in semester 4.

Arbeidskrav og obligatoriske aktiviteter

Alle hjelpemidler tillatt ved skriftlig hjemmeeksamen.

Ingen hjelpemidler tillatt ved praktisk eksamen.

Vurdering og eksamen

The course will include lectures and seminars. Students will be exposed to conceptual theories and tools that they will bridge to their previous entrepreneurial experiences. Students are expected to actively participate in discussions and to link theory and research to their own practice. The seminars are led by students and are based on teamwork. Through participation in lectures and seminars, the students will enhance their ability to present and argue for their own ideas and practices as well as to reflect and give feedback to fellow students.
