Rules of attendance

PBL in the 9th semester

The semester includes eight PBL assignments of one to two weeks in duration.

PBL instruction will take place at Rikshospitalet and Akershus University Hospital.

As in previous semesters, the inclusion of PBL is fundamental to the course of study. The responsibilities and tasks of advisers and students in the PBL colloquium are, as before, based on the now familiar seven step process. The groups are put together prior to week one of the semester.

This learning method is fundamental to this course of study, gives the students a considerable amount of influence and responsibility for their learning. In addition, PBL allows for an interdisciplinary approach. Using a situation or course of events taken from the real world, the students acquire knowledge and insight such that they can understand and explain the underlying mechanisms.

The work follows a structured plan which is divided into three main sections: (1) preliminary group meetings on Tuesdays where the students will come to an agreement about their learning goals, (2) obtaining information independently through the week, and (3) closing group meetings on Fridays.

Every PBL group has approximately eight students and a permanent teacher as an adviser. The groups are chosen by drawing lots prior to the start of the semester.
