Teaching and learning methods
The teaching normally runs over a period of 10 weeks. It may also be relevant to intensify the teaching and schedule for blocks. Normally there will be two sessions a week. Key parts of the curriculum are taught in these sessions. Student-active forms of learning are emphasized, and throughout the semester there will be a great focus on self-activity. It is expected that the students prepare thoroughly for the lessons and carry out follow-up work and problem solving.
If fewer than five students register for a course, the teaching offered can be adapted to the number of students. In that case, information will be given at the beginning of the semester.
Compulsory Assignments and Attendance
There are three obligatory assignments on selected topics from the reading list. These assignments must be completed by the given deadline. More information about the types of assignment, assessment criteria and deadlines is given at the beginning of the semester.The assignments are assessed as a pass/fail. In accordance with the University of Bergen's Regulations for Degrees and Studies, the students have the right to a second try for each assignment, if one or more of the first hand-ins were not passed. All the assignments must be approved before the student can complete the final assessment in the course.
The compulsory assignments are valid for one semester after the teaching semester.
