Bacheloroppgaven er en avsluttende fordypningsoppgave i sykepleiefaget. Gjennom arbeidet med bacheloroppgaven får du erfaring med fordypning innenfor et avgrenset område, og mulighet for å utvikle din evne til faglig selvstendighet. Tema skal knyttes til kunnskap om sykepleieprofesjonen, pasienter og/eller pårørende. I bacheloroppgaven skal du gjøre systematiske litteratursøk for å anvende resultater fra nyere forskning relatert til den valgte problemstillingen. Bacheloroppgaven stiller krav til systematisk og klar fremstilling. Tittel på bacheloroppgaven framkommer på vitnemålet.

I høstsemesteret vil det settes opp noe undervisning knyttet til for eksempel utvikling av foreløpig tema og problemstilling til bacheloroppgaven, jamfør arbeidskravet Prosjektbeskrivelse for bacheloroppgaven.

Selvstudier, forelesninger, digitale læringsressurser, gruppearbeid, seminarer med fremlegg og praksisstudier: simulering og ferdighetstrening (2 uker) og inspirasjonspraksis (1 uke).

Deler av undervisningen er organisert som omvendt undervisning. Digitale læringsressurser vil bli gjort tilgjengelig på forhånd. ;

This joint course is developed for all the Bachelor programmes at the Faculty of Health Sciences which are part of RETHOS (National guidelines for the Health and Social Studies), and is considered as an introductory course, preferably taken during the first part of the study programme.

In this course, starting with relatable examples, students will learn about the rationale for evidence-based practice (EBP) and its Core Competencies: Ask, Acquire, Appraise and Interpret, Apply, and Evaluate. Areas of focus are critical thinking (e.g. asking critical questions about health claims and the sources of claims), and shared decision-making. The course provides a foundation for learning and applying more advanced and field-specific skills.

Forelesninger, seminarer, veiledning og selvstudier. Alle får tildelt veileder.
