Practice 1. year

PRA1020

There are no prerequisites beyond admission requirements for the programme of study.

Some costs must be anticipated in connection with travel to and from teaching practice. Nord University may cover some expenses in accordance with applicable decisions. Semester registration fees apply.

Compulsory

The teaching practice is assessed on a pass/fail basis.

In order to pass the practicum, the student - after a comprehensive assessment - must have attained the learning outcomes of the practicum, maintained 100% attendance, and completed, with an "Approved" grade, all of the assignments specified in the competency guidelines ("Kompetanseguide"). Absences or assignments missing approval will automatically result in failure. Students who fail the practicum must undertake an entirely new practicum.

New/re-scheduled examination:

According to the "Regulations governing studies and examinations at Nord University", students have the right to two attempts at the examination in teaching practice. In the event that the student fails to pass the first attempt, the student must wait until the next time the same practice period is conducted in order to take the re-scheduled examination. The student must apply in writing at the start of the applicable semester in order to undertake a new teaching practice. The re-scheduled teaching practice will be carried out according to the same guidelines as ordinary teaching practice. The student will receive a written notification if they do not pass.
