Contents

The main purpose of the course is to provide the student with insight and experience in practical work relevant to the study programme. Throughout the course, students will be engaged in practical work within a chosen organisation related to sports and/or esports. Students will apply knowledge derived from the study programme (e.g. coaching/leadership, group dynamics, technology in sports, and athlete development, well-being and performance) at the individual, group, and/or organisational levels.

Teaching and learning methods

The course is centred around practice, but will also include lectures, seminars, and presentations. Opportunities for practice work will be presented by the coordinator of the course, and the work is typically located in the Kristiansand/Agder region. The students may find their own practice place, which must be approved by the coordinator of the course before the start of the practice period. Practice can be conducted internally (e.g. in the e-sports lab at the university) or externally (e.g. in sport organisation/sports clubs).

Expected student workload for the average student is 270 hours.

Examination requirements

Active participation in mandatory lectures and completing mandatory tasks. Practice participation as defined by course coordinator (s) is mandatory and must be approved.
