The workshop offers opportunities for academics and those who work with or conduct research on accessibility and universal design to learn about what UiO offers.

There will be presentations on theories and concepts related to accessibility and universal design in higher education, as well as a place to try out hardware and software designed to meet at least some of the goals of universal design.

Participants may receive 10 hours toward their basic competence in pedagogy by completing two additional assignments.

This module provides an introduction to the basics in university pedagogy and offers opportunities to develop one's own teaching practice together with other participants.

Module Scope: 120 hours, incl. face-to-face meetings, assignments between meetings, a peer mentoring process (observation of 4 teaching sessions) and the completion of an individual reflection report.

Themes addressed in the course are

• Perspectives on learning and teaching in higher education

• Learning environments and learning technologies

• Course design, teaching, supervision and evaluation of teaching

• Student assessment and feedback

• Collegial peer-feedback and peer-mentoring

• Professional responsibility as a university teacher, including ethical and relational aspects related to teaching

Course focused on intensive longitudinal methods, particularly on linear mixed models and extensions that model both means and variances.

Course director: Don Hedeker
Remote seminar
Organised by Statistical Horizons 

A five-day course on how to study dynamics in intensive longitudinal data, such as ambulatory assessments (AA), experience sampling method (ESM) data, ecological momentary assessments (EMA), real time data capture, observational data or electronic daily diaries. The course provides a tour of diverse modeling approaches for such data and the philosophies behind them, as well as practical experience with these modeling techniques using different software packages (including R and Mplus).

A toolbox for studying change

A five-day course on research methods developed to study complex adaptive dynamical systems and networks, applied to the study of human behaviour. The idea behind many methods for studying the dynamics of complex systems is to exploit the fact that “everything is interacting” and quantify the degree of periodicity, nonlinearity, context sensitivity or resistance to perturbation (resilience) of system behaviour. The main focus of the course was hands-on data-analysis.

Compared to statistical significance, little attention is paid to the importance of “clinical relevance” in scientific research. This short course dealt with the role clinical relevance plays in sample size determination (power), describing the results and statistical testing.
