Innledning

Design og kommunikasjon i digitale medier er en praktisk-estetisk utdanning som gir kunnskap om digitale medier og visuell kommunikasjon.

Digitale medier har stor betydning for samfunnsutviklingen ved at de i stadig tiltagende grad blir anvendt til formidling innen ulike fag- og yrkesområder. Studiet skal sette studentene i stand til å utforme og formidle budskap i en moderne medieverden.

Studiet er beregnet på studenter som ønsker å utvikle skapende evner, visuell kompetanse og praktisk-estetiske ferdigheter innen digitale medier. I studiet skal studentene tilegne seg grunnleggende design- og kommunikasjonsprinsipper. Studentene skal lære å mestre digitale verktøy. De lærer kreativ tenkning og problemløsning individuelt og i grupper, noe som gjør dem mer konkurransedyktige i dagens arbeidsmarked, uansett karrierevei.

Studiet har et omfang på 60 studiepoeng og tilbys som et deltidsstudium med undervisning fordelt over to år. Studiet er bygget opp av fire emner som hver har et omfang på 15 studiepoeng.

Årsstudiet gir som selvstendig enhet ingen grad, men kan gi innpass for emner eller inngå som deler i relevante bachelorstudier.

Målgruppe

Formålet med dette studiet er å heve kompetansen hos helsepersonell ved den medisinske nødmeldetjenesten. Den medisinske nødmeldetjenesten består av legevaktsentraler (LVS, telefon 116 117) og akuttmedisinske kommunikasjonssentraler (AMK, telefon 113). Den medisinske nødmeldetjenesten tar imot telefon fra pasienter, publikum og helsepersonell når det er mistanke om akutt sykdom og skade. De gir råd om førstehjelp, vurderer alvorlighetsgrad (triagering) og fordeler ressurser (blant annet sende ambulanse, legeundersøkelse eller rådgivning). Nødmeldetjenestene spiller med dette en nøkkelrolle for å sikre gode pasientforløp utenfor sykehus i Norge. Endret demografi, begrensede ressurser, flere spesialiserte helsetjenester samtidig med at flere og sykere pasienter følges opp utenfor sykehus, vil føre til at nødmeldetjenestens rolle blir enda viktigere i fremtiden. I Norges offentlige utredning (NOU) 2015: 17: Først og fremst, beskriver akuttutvalget den medisinske nødmeldetjenesten som «navet» i den akuttmedisinske kjeden. Utvalget fant at det var varierende grad av kunnskap og kompetanse i tjenesten og så behovet for et høyere utdanningstilbud innen medisinsk nødmeldetjeneste.

Etter fullført videreutdanning kan studenten bidra til å sikre kunnskapsbasert praksis ved egen arbeidsplass, samt bidra til videreutvikling av fagområdet medisinsk nødmeldetjeneste.

Studentene får en dypere forståelse av den medisinske nødmeldetjenestens rolle i den akuttmedisinske kjeden generelt, og økt innsikt i likheter og forskjeller mellom legevaktsentraler (LVS) og akuttmedisinske kommunikasjonssentraler (AMK). Dette vil bidra til god samhandling som igjen er en forutsetning for gode pasientforløp. Studentene vil også få en innføring i kommunikasjon og beslutningsprosesser, og hvordan bruke dette for å gjennomføre et strukturert mottak av en nødmelding.

Studiet har hjemmel i Lov om universiteter og høyskoler og forskrift om studier og eksamen ved OsloMet - storbyuniversitetet.

Relevans for arbeidsliv

Utdanningen skal heve kompetansen hos helsepersonell ved den medisinske nødmeldetjenesten. Studiet er spesielt relevant for ansatte som jobber med veiledning, fagutvikling eller ledelse.

Relevans for videre utdanning

Videreutdanning i medisinsk nødmeldetjeneste ligger på masternivå og kan være et utgangspunkt for videre masterstudier ved OsloMet – storbyuniversitetet eller andre utdanningsinstitusjoner. Dette innebærer at studenten, ved et eventuelt senere opptak til et masterprogram, kan søke den aktuelle institusjonen/programmet om innpassing av videreutdanningen som del av mastergraden.

Innhold og oppbygging

The form of teaching in most subjects is a combination of lectures, seminars, group work, work with practical and theoretical assignments / productions, and presentations. Traditional lectures are supplemented by forms of work and teaching where student-active forms of learning are planned with emphasis on discussion, collaboration and fellow student response. A significant degree of self-study and self-effort must be expected Forms of work and teaching for each subject are selected on the basis of what can best lead to the expected learning outcome.

Achieved learning outcomes of lectures will be to be introduced to important areas of knowledge and gain an understanding of the core areas of journalism, non-fiction and / or the media and communication subjects in general. Achieved learning outcomes of seminars and group work with supervision and problem solving will be the ability to orientate independently within a professional material, show the ability to innovate and reflect on one's own practice, be able to present own research in an understandable way, and show the ability for critical and constructive analysis of others' media productions and research.

Individual supervision will be the central form of work for the development of the master's thesis. Achieved learning outcomes of individual supervision will be to be able to carry out an independent, limited research or development project within the field of study in line with current research ethics norms, and be able to analyze academic and research ethics issues.

During the work on the master's thesis, students are encouraged to establish colloquium groups. Learning outcomes of such colloquium groups will be to be able to critically discuss with fellow students' own conclusions on the basis of a large amount of material and through constructive feedback stimulate each other to further develop the task.

The master's program places considerable emphasis on the development of knowledge and skills through process-oriented project work, either individually or in groups. Several individual subjects, as well as the work on the master's thesis itself, provide opportunities for project work in collaboration with actors in working life, and especially the media companies represented in the department's two industry councils, for journalism and media and communication.

The syllabus is in Norwegian and English. Some subjects are taught in Norwegian, but an approximately equal proportion of the subjects are taught in English. Good English skills will therefore be an advantage.

Arbeids- og undervisningsformer

Students can apply for an exchange one semester (up to 30 credits). Exchange is possible primarily in the 2nd semester for full-time study, but exchange in the 3rd semester will also be possible, if the student chooses to postpone courses for this semester. The study is based on a large degree of freedom of choice, and the two compulsory courses are in the 1st semester (for full-time study).

To meet the requirement of a minimum of 10 credits in the fields of study in addition to the master's thesis (60 credits), the student can, for example, take one course in the field of study in the 1st semester in addition to the two compulsory courses, and then travel on exchange and take 30 credits. other educational institution in the 2nd semester.

The study program proposes that the students are to a large extent responsible for their own learning development towards the work on the master's thesis. The relevance of exchange stays for the master's thesis will therefore be decisive in the assessment of applications for exchange.The Department of Journalism and Media Studies has agreements within the Erasmus program and the Nordplus program, and students can also apply via OsloMet - the metropolitan university's agreements outside Europe.International perspectives are also safeguarded by the fact that several of the learning outcome descriptions at both program and course level are oriented towards international conditions, and by offering a number of courses in English. Both Norwegian and foreign students participate in these courses, and the students use experiences from their respective home countries in the pedagogical program.

Arbeidskrav og obligatoriske aktiviteter

Some of the courses include work requirements that must be approved before the student can sit for the exam in the course. This can e.g. be submissions, project assignments, oral presentations or group work. Work requirements are described in more detail in each syllabus. The work requirements help to support the course's learning outcomes, both in that the students are trained through the actual work with these assignments and in that the work requirements often ensure that the students acquire skills and knowledge that are not tested during the exam itself.

Vurdering og sensur

Assessment and grading are in accordance with the provisions on assessment in the Act of 1 April 2005 no. 15 On Universities and Colleges and Regulations on Studies and Examinations at OsloMet - the metropolitan university. The forms of assessment vary from subject to subject and include written assignments, production assignments, semester assignments, home exams and oral exams.

Some of the courses, including the master's thesis, have an oral assessment in addition to another form of examination. Oral examination will function as a supplement to the second form of examination in that it is possible for the student to elaborate on the second answer and show the ability for critical thinking and reflection. The master's thesis is an independent research project related to a self-chosen topic. The examination form is either a dissertation or a practical assignment in combination with a theoretical reflection note, as well as an oral examination.

In several of the courses, the student can choose between two different examination forms, either a theoretical written assignment or a practical assignment. In the latter case, the assignment consists of a production assignment with an accompanying reflection note. For those students who choose a practical variant of the master's thesis, it will usually be an advantage to choose practical assignments in individual subjects to develop the ability to produce in parallel with exercising critical reflection on their own work based on the subject's scientific theories and methods.

Use of sources / source references

It is expected that the master's students already have basic knowledge of the use of sources / source references and the use of quotations. OsloMet takes cheating very seriously, and it is important that students are familiar with the rules that apply to avoid being suspected of cheating / attempted cheating in connection with thesis writing. On this website you will also find important information about cheating https://student.OsloMet.no/retningslinjer-fusk-eksamen.

Censorship and use of supervision sensor

The Department of Journalism and Media Studies normally uses both internal and external examiners. The use of an examiner is described in more detail in the individual syllabus.In addition, the Department of Journalism and Media Studies has a supervisory examiner who will supervise the study program, cf. Regulations on studies and examinations at OsloMet and Guidelines for the appointment and use of examiners at OsloMet.

Assessment terms

A graded scale with five steps from A to E for passing and F for failing is used as the assessment expression. For assessments that end with an oral test, the grade for the second assignment can be adjusted up or down one grade. In order to be able to sit for the oral exam, the second part of the exam must be passed.Censorship can be appealed in accordance with the Universities and University Colleges Act § 5-3.We reserve the right to make changes to the program plan, as a result of e.g. regulatory changes. Changes in the syllabus also occur, and we recommend that students wait to buy textbooks until they have spoken to the individual subject teacher / course coordinator. The syllabi are adopted for one academic year at a time, so that it will be the latest syllabus that applies to the next ordinary examination and subsequent re-sit examination (new / postponed examination).
