How to organize a meeting

  1. Talk to people in general, spreading the words. It’s like the willingness survey. See how people react and if they are willing to join.

    You will get some idea about how to organize it, when, where (physical or online).

  2. Send out information: A meeting is on the way

    More information will come soon

  3. Talk to more people, ask when they are available and if they can make it

  4. Send out actual invitaiton

    Physical, make a room reservation

  5. With digital possibility maybe.

Apply for Vacation

Use DFØ-portal and submit an absence request.

If one works 100% for a whole year, in this case, 2023, one is entitled to 25 days of paid vacation. This is calculated as approximately two days of paid vacation per month if one works 100%.

Let’s say you started working 100% in June 2023; you would be entitled to approximately 13 days of paid vacation.

Q: How to register a request for vacation?
A: DFØ → request for absence → create request → Leave type (Holiday with pay)

  • Set out-of-office messages on eamil and Teams
  • place a notice on the office door.

Summer vacation: most people start in week 28, take 3 weeks off.

Two types of vacations

  • Betalt Ferie: 25 days paid holiday leave; ← regular holiday one should apply;
  • Velderdpermisjoner: 12 days paid compassionate leave; ← in connection with unforeseen events, e.g., for children’s transition to daycare or after-school (SFO) facilities; children’s first day of school; medical treatment;

Framework for teaching time

  • The core time for teaching is from Monday to Friday between 0815 to 1600.
  • A lesson starts at quarter past the hour and lasts 45 minutes.
  • For the best possible utilization of room capacity, the entire core time must be used. Teaching is normally planned in two-hour blocks.
  • Teaching starts at 0815 in front of 0915 (which loses an hour from today’s start).
  • Teaching ends at 1600 before 1500 (which loses an hour from the end of the day).
  • Starting at. From 14 to 16 on Wednesdays there are no lessons as a result of Student Democracy time. The only exceptions are: need for special rooms with limited capacity and experience-based master’s degrees and assignment-based studies

Grading

Status

  • Finished (考试已结束，待批卷)
  • Graded (批卷已结束)

Exam registration

Exams must be registered in Inspera at least 14 days prior to the examination date.

Grading Deadline

Grades must be registered by 12:00 (noon) on the official deadline date - preferably one day earlier.

Grading guidelines (Sensorveiledning)

Must be uploaded in Inspera after the exam has been completed, and in Canvas for student access.

Exams and Al

  • No declaration form will be introduced for students.
  • Exam questions or assignment descriptions must clearly state whether the use of generative artificial intelligence is permitted or not for producing the submission.
  • It is considered cheating if a submission is generated using generative Al and submitted wholly or partly as the student’s own work.

Scale Criteria

Q: Where to put grading scale criteria/threshold?

A: For instance, A>90%, 75%<B≤90%, 55%<C≤75%, 45%<D≤55%, 35%<E≤45% and not passed is F ≤ 35%.

The home assignment should have higher bars, whereas the final can lower the threshold a bit.

The co-examiner shall participate in preparation of the examination question/s and assessment criteria. The co-examiner shall also participate in assessment of the examination response. If there are more than fifteen (15) responses, the co-examiner may assess a share of the responses.

  4. The following constitute external grading:

    1. Participation in assessment of examination responses from all candidates; or
    2. Participation as an external programme supervisor. The Rector may determine guidelines for external programme supervisors.

  5. Who is qualified for external sensors?

    External sensors must not have been employed at Nord University at any time during ten (10) months preceding nomination.

Link to the Regulations relating to studies and examinations at Nord University

At masters level, internal examination is only desired on assessments that count less than 50% of the grade.

https://www.nord.no/en/student/examinations-and-assessment/grounds-and-appeals

Won’t see in Inspera, need to check here at Fagpersonweb.

Need to select Term in order to see the requests.

Note that the candidates can ask for explanation/grounds of grades up to one (1) week after the grade has been published in Studentweb.

  • For an oral examination or the assessment of practical skills, you must request grounds for grades immediately after the grade has been announced.

The student got 85 points from multiple-choice and for the two open-response questions,

  • Capital budgeting got 2 points for referring to the correct formulas. The student failed to table the cash flows, therefore receiving no points for related qeustions. Refer to the solution for answers.
  • Residual Income Valuation got 8 points. Refer to the solution for answers.

The student got 95 out of 197 points, which is 48%, falling into the range of grade D (45-55%).

Q: What is the deadline of providing an explanation?

A: Grounds should normally be given, either orally or in writing according to the examiner’s preference, within two (2) weeks of the demand.

Q: Who is responsible for drafting the grounds for determination of grade?

A: The internal examiner (i.e., course responsible) is responsible for preparing the explanation of grades.

I need to do the following for external sensors

  • send exam solutions to external sensors, and
  • send threshold values for marking, and orignal grades I gave;
    • Note that: Cannot be two or more grades different from the original marking. For instance, if I gave B, the external committee should give marks A-C, any more deviations will result in big troubles.
  • remind them of deadlines and number of students who requested appeals? [Course responsible does NOT get notification when there are students appealing. Exam office send notifications directly to the appeal committee.]

Klage Kommisjon (Klagesensur)

One internal + external examiners

Q: Can someone who is teaching the course also be the internal examiner?

Appeal examiner / accessor

The deadline for starting an appeal of grades is three (3) weeks after the grade has been announced in Studentweb.

  1. Klagesensur will get an email from Inspera when someone asks for re-grading.

  2. Logging in to Inspera to access to the submissions. Choose “Admin login”, and log in using either:

    • ID-porten, i.e., Norwegian ID-number and a bank identificator, or

    • Fiede, i.e., the university account

  3. Marking the exam.

  4. Contact the other sensor in the committee and reach an agreement before confirmation.

    • Q: Where to see the committee?

      A: See Here .

Q: Can the course responsible know that students applied for appeals? (I might want to remind the Klagesensur.)

A: No. I don’t get notifications for appeals. I only get notifications for explanations.

Q: How to resolve the appeals?

A: Klage committee (one internal + one external) steps in. Internal and external sensors must agree on the final grade. And their grade cannot be two or more grades different than the original grade. If so, a further assessment is made before the final grade is determined.

The examiners for the ordinary examination and for the reassessment will conduct the assessment jointly. (cf §11-2 Appealing a grade)

The fee form for external examiners can be found HERE.

Q: How should the form be returned to?

Contact: Johanna Petterson; Ylva Marie Sagvolden;

Q: Deadline for provision of appeal results?

A: Regarding the marking deadline for appeals: There is NO specific marking deadline for appeals on grading, but we wish for the grading to be done as soon as possible.

There is just 2 things it is smart to be aware of:

  1. The external “klagesensor” sometimes does not get notification about regrading. It is great that you let him know that some students want to have their exam re-graded.
  2. Students can submit their requests for re-grading for 3 weeks after the initial grades are published. This means that one needs to check Inspera here-and-there to make sure that no new inquiries have arrived.

  1. No embeded calculator in inspera.

FAQ

Q: Is it possible to register only the school exam but not the home exam?
A: Yes.

Det er mulig å melde seg opp til kun skoleeksamen, det kan være at siden dette er en sammensatt vurdering så blir en automatisk oppmeldt til begge vurderingene og så må man trekke seg fra den som ikke er aktuell.

Hvis det er problemer med oppmelding etc så be ham ta kontakt med Gøran Jenssen.

Parking

Bodø - Free parking spaces will be reduced from 30 April 2024

Nord University has had a lease agreement for free parking at the Police Academy, during the construction of Noatun. This agreement ends on 30 April, and that part of the parking area will be charged.

Other parking areas - as at the student kindergarten and Mørkvedhallen are still free parking.

This means that from 30th April there will be fewer places with free parking.

The image below shows paid parking from 30/4 (orange strip) and free parking (green fields).
