MABY4400 Structural Analysis and Design Emneplan

All people have a right to an active everyday life and to participate in society. Promoting this right is part of the occupational therapist's social responsibility. If people, for various reasons, do not have the opportunity to live an active and meaningful life with social connections, it can be detrimental to health. In this course, students will work on a project that aims to develop an idea for an activity-based measure to promote inclusion and belonging for a vulnerable group in society.

The students will also participate in the interdisciplinary teaching initiative INTER1100.

INTER1100 ‘The same child - different arenas’ (1.5 credits)

INTER 1100 ‘The Same Child - Different Arenas’ is part of the teaching project Interprofessional Interaction with Children and Youth (INTERACT), which takes place across the programmes of professional study at OsloMet. The goal is to increase the quality of the programmes of professional study that focus on children and young people. Through INTERACT, students acquire research-based knowledge about the everyday lives of children and young people, as well as practice in cooperating with students from other programmes. In this way, INTERACT forms the basis for improved coordination of society’s services directed at children and young people and their parents/guardians. INTER1100 ‘The Same Child - Different Arenas’ makes up the first module of INTERACT.

INTER1100 provides a common academic platform for all students involved. It is about becoming more aware and gain more knowledge about your own and other people’s programmes of professional study that target children and young people's upbringing.

Det benyttes intern og ekstern sensor til sensurering av besvarelsene.

Et uttrekk på minst 25 % av besvarelsene sensureres av to sensorer. Karakterene på disse samsensurerte besvarelsene skal danne grunnlag for å fastsette nivå på resten av besvarelsene.

The student must have been admitted to the study programme.

After completing the course and INTER1100*, the student is expected to have achieved the following learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge, skills and general competence:

Knowledge

The student is capable of

• assessing and presenting inclusive and excluding factors that influence participation and sense of belonging in the big city
• describing the principles for user participation and resource orientation in local communities
• describing the process of growing up in a society characterised by social and cultural diversity*

Work and teaching methods comprise lectures, work and supervision in project groups and field studies in Oslo. On the basis of the field studies, the students will develop a project plan including a design of activity measures targeting towards a chosen user group. The students will work on the project plan throughout the course.
