Pensum/læringskrav høsten 2017

Pensum finnes i sin helhet som bøker, kompendium og online artikler.

Bøkene er å få kjøpt på amazon.co.uk. Akademika har også noen eksemplarer. I tillegg skal de fleste bøker/monografier kunne lånes på biblioteket.

Kompendiet selges hos Kopiutsalget. Husk at gyldig semesterkort må fremvises. Instituttet bestiller kompendiet før semesterstart, til et forventet antall studenter. Viser det seg at vi har bestilt for få kompendier, kan vi bestille flere. En slik re-bestilling må gjøres tidlig i semesteret. Merknad: Tekstene i kompendiet må klareres før kopiering, en prosess som tar tid. Av den grunn er det dessverre ikke mulig å re-bestille kompendiet nært opp til eksamen.

Vedr artiklene online

Dersom man ønsker å laste ned tekstene hjemmefra, må en være koblet opp til UiO’s nettverk via VPN-klient.

I noen databaser for e-tidsskrifter er det ikke mulig å lenke direkte til pdf-filen. I disse tilfeller er det lenket til innholdsfortegnelsen eller til tidsskriftet, hvor man så kan finne riktig artikkel og laste ned den aktuelle teksten.

Tilgjengeliggjøring via internett er en fordel da det gir tilgang til deler av pensum på et tidligere tidspunkt enn ved trykking av kompendier, samt at studenter kan velge å lese på skjerm. Ved utskrift betaler studenter for dette utover utskriftskvoten, men dette er også rimeligere pr side enn kjøp av kompendier pr trykt side.
