DOK-2011: The Use of Documents Work Load
20 credits (ECTS) | Objectives
The objective is that the students should acquire an understanding of the user perspective on forms of documentation in different social contexts and in connection with the use of different media. Furthermore, the students are to learn to make their own points of view the object of critical reflection in a perspective of theory and methodology through the comparison of different theories and methods. | Contents
Limited optional subject in a course of study in Documentary Science. The subject can be taken by students from other programmes.
A preliminary year''s study in Documentary Science must be completed in order for a student to be qualified for acceptance to the master''s degree programme in Documentary Science.
In this course, document use is discussed from both a historical and a contemporary perspective. The emphasis will be on a comparative perspective, e.g. the relationship between the use of printed and digital media, the relationship between reading literature, watching films, listening to music, etc. | Form of teaching
Teaching takes place for 10 weeks in a 21-week period, with periods of individual study and supervision. Teaching consists of lectures, seminars, project work, and supervision. Throughout the semester we will be working partly in physical meetings, partly through discipline''s web site. | Assessment
Work assignment: An oral and written presentation of the project (2-3 pages) must be given during the semester.The work assignment will be evaluated as pass/fail.
The examination consists of a project paper.
The students are to produce a project paper of up to 20 pages, 30 pages for groups of two students, and 40 pages for groups of 3 students. The project is to be submitted electronically no later than at the end of the project period. The project paper is also to be submitted as hardcopy. Students may submit projects using other media than text, e.g. pictures, sound, and video. For group projects, an overview of the distribution of work between the members of the group must be enclosed.
