Implementation and methods of teaching

Contents
The master student plans three (3) educational days through which the course is carried out. An educational day means one consisting of participation in national or international education, a conference, seminar, visit etc, arranged either by LAB UAS, by your own employer or an outside institution. The purpose of these events is to deepen and complete the student´s competences in his/ her area of expertise. The student presents a proposal for participation in the selected educational day or days to the tutor teacher before the event and is able to take part in it after approval by the teacher. The student prepares a report according to the instructions given and based on their own their own learning objectives with the improved competences outlined.
The detailed instructions and implementation description are published on Moodle.
There is no timing plan for the course, but it is possible to carry it out during the education period (1.5 – 2.5 years) all at once or spread over several occasions.
