Course content

Same as NORD1106. Students are not expected to be able to express themselves in appropriate and correct Norwegian (bokmål or nynorsk) to the same extent as Norwegian students. NORX-courses may not be included in a Norwegian university degree or qualify for admission to Teacher Education.

Learning outcome

Same as NORD1106.

Learning methods and activities

Lectures and groupwork. The students attend the lectures and have the same reading list as the students in NORD1106. The course is taught in Norwegian.

Obligatory assignments: 1 approved written assignment (approx. 1500 words). There will be oral/written evaluation (pass/fail) of this assignment. Approved obligatory assignments are valid only in the semester in which the approval is given.

Compulsory assignments

  • 1 written assignment

Further on evaluation

Assessment:

- Term paper, ca. 1500 words. This counts as 40% of the final grade.

- Written exam, 4 hours. This counts as 60% of the final grade.

Each of the exams are graded separately, but only the final grade will be listed on official diplomas and transcripts of records from NTNU. In the final grade, the two exams count as stated above. Both exams must receive the grade E or better in order for the student to receive a passing grade. Students who have failed the term paper may appeal the grade and sit the written exam, but in case the appeal is dismissed, the result on the written exam will be cancelled.

It will not be possible to hand in a term paper in semesters where NORD1106 is not taught, with an exception for students who have a legitimate absence for the term paper. A resit examination of the written exam will be offered for students who passed the term paper. Students who fail must retake both exams. If a student resits the exam in a later semester, they must retake both exams.

Students may bring an Old Norse glossary (or dictionary) and an outline of Old Norse declinations to the exam.

Required previous knowledge

For international guest students (student exchange through International Office at NTNU) only.

Course materials

Same as NORD1106. The reading list for the course will be available at the beginning of the semester.
