Five meetings

Today, at my first day this autumn on campus (and my second day at work), I have taken part in five meetings: A brief faculty leadership meeting, a meeting on a joint ph.d. project (Faculty of health sciences / Faculty of social sciences) related to Cognitive lab, a working group meeting for Cognitive lab where we decided on name and concept for the lab, an organizing committee meeting for the Norwegian animal ethics conference 2020, and a research administration meeting.

Two meetings including RCN info meeting

Two meetings attended so far today - the first meeting of the appointment committee for Head of department at Norwegian School of Hotel Management, and an information meeting about applications to Research Council of Norway, for Faculty of Social Sciences and Faculty of Health Sciences. At the latter I offered introductory remarks along with fellow Vice-Dean of Research Henriette Thune (health sciences). Some 30 people were present.

Done with MPH130

I have informed relevant colleagues that I will not be involved in another round with the Master course "Philosophy of science and health care ethics", offered by Faculty of health sciences and part of the Master in Pre-Hospital Critical Care.

I have just explained the grading of an exam paper.

Complaint grading for health faculty

Today I reported complaint grading in MHV140 (one exam paper).

Exam questions composed

Today I have composed exam questions for the continuation exam in Philosophy of science and health care ethics.

Two explanations of grading

Today I have provided two explanations of grading in "Philosophy of science and health care ethics".

17 MA exam papers graded

I have just reported having graded 17 home exam papers in "Philosophy of science and health care ethics".

5 hours of teaching

On Friday 23rd of February I taught for 5 hours, finishing teaching in "Philosophy of science and health care ethics". As the second gathering concluded, the home exam began.

6 hours of teaching

Today I have taught for another 6 hours, including 4 hours of teacher-moderated and -commented student presentations and two hours of teacher presentations.

6 hours of PHCC teaching

Today I have taught for 6 hours in "Philosophy of science and health care ethics", with ethical themes, including 4 hours of teacher-moderated student presentations. Good discussions.

Exam questions composed for PHCC master

I have just composed exam questions for Philosophy of science and health care ethics (PHCC master). The home exam starts in a week.

Meeting on PHCC master

Today I have had a meeting with the new program coordinator for the Pre-Hospital Critical Care master at University of Stavanger´s Faculty of health sciences, discussing the course I am coordinating and teaching, on health care ethics and philosophy of science.

MPH130 teaching plan revised

A couple of months ago I revised the teaching plan for "Philosophy of science and health care ethics" - on demand, so to speak (say no more).

300 students - message exchange

I am currently course coordinator in three courses with altogether 300 students or so - spread on two faculties and practically three departments. Quite a few. One of the courses extends until February, the other two are classical autumn courses.

I have no exact count of the number of messages - emails and Canvas messages - I have exchanged this autumn, but it it not unreasonable to assume that I have exchanged on average 1 message with each student, a total of 300 or so.

17 hours taught this week; done for year

I have just finished teaching 6 more hours in "Philosophy of science and health care ethics". This concludes my teaching this first of two gatherings, and all teaching this year.

5 more hours of teaching

Today I have taught for 5 hours in "Health care ethics and philosophy of science" at University of Stavanger´s Faculty of health sciences, in the master Pre-hospital critical care. I gave an introduction to philosophy of science. The plan was to go on for 6 hours, but the students thought 5 hours was enough.
