Course content

Norwegian 2 is a continuation of Norwegian 1 and covers the teaching of Norwegian for the grades 5-10 with emphasis on the grades 7-10. The course provides historical background and more extensive knowledge about key literary topics, a deeper insight into teaching Norwegian, and a more effective academic basis for working on assessment that promotes learning and adapted Norwegian education for all pupils. Through work on language and texts the students are invited to further develop their own language skills and their own textual competence and dissemination skills. Instruction in scientific methodology is integrated in course work related to individual written assignments.

Main area 2 focuses on theoretical, historical, and literary-didactic knowledge about and approaches to literature (fiction and non-fiction) in different genres and media. Texts from film, theatre, and other media are studied within the framework of Norwegian teaching and learning, as they relate to Norwegian as a school subject.
