• can collect and analyse qualitative individual data
• can reflect on the collection and analysis of individual data
• can present analysis results

General competence

The work and teaching methods include self-study, group work, seminars, lectures and skills training.

The following must have been approved in order for the student to take the exam:

• minimum attendance of 80 % in seminars, literature search classes, computer labs and group work.

Portfolio assessment:

Part 1) Individual written home exam, 750 words (+/- 10 %)

Part 2) Group assignment: Written assignment in groups of 2-3 students. Scope of 2,500 words (+/- 10 %).

Weighting: One overall grade is awarded based on the portfolio. Both assignments in the portfolio count equally with respect to grading, but if an F is awarded for one of the assignments, the overall grade will also be an F.

Resit exam: Students will be given one opportunity to submit a reworked version of the portfolio assignment(s) for which an F was awarded.

Eksamen er en prosjektrapport i gruppe og en muntlig presentasjon. Rapporten skal bygge på erfaringene studentene får gjennom undervisningen og gjennomføringen av prosjekt i praksisfeltet. Rapporten skal ha et omfang på 15 sider, +/- 10%. Skrifttype og skriftstørrelse: Calibri 12 pkt. Linjeavstand 1,5. Godkjent referansestil APA for oppgaveskriving skal følges. Den muntlige presentasjonen forberedes gjennom et prosessorientert verksted i forkant av eksamen i samlet klasse.

Rapporten og presentasjonen vurderes samlet,og det kreves aktiv deltakelse fra alle studenter i forberedelser og gjennomføring av både prosjektrapporten i gruppe og den muntlige presentasjonen for å bestå eksamen.

Kandidater som ikke består, eller har gyldig fravær ved ordinær skiftlig eksamen, kan fremstille seg til ny/utsatt eksamen. Studenter som ikke deltar i forberedelser eller som har gyldig fravær fra den muntlige delen av eksamen, gjennomfører en tilpasset individuell presentasjon.

Dersom det er studenter fra utlandet som deltar i emnet gjennomføres den muntlige presentasjonen på engelsk. Prosjektgrupper med studenter fra utlandet skriver prosjektrapport på engelsk.

Parts 1 and 2: Grade scale A-F.

Parts 1 and 2: All answers are assessed by one examiner. An external examiner is used regularly, at a minimum of every third completion of the course. When selecting answers for external evaluation, a minimum of 10 percent of the answers shall be included, with no fewer than 5 answers. The external examiner’s assessment of the selected answers shall benefit all students.

Det benyttes intern og ekstern sensor til sensurering av alle besvarelsene.
