Riktlinjer för examensarbete

• På Linnéuniversitetet finns ” lokala regler för examinationer på grundnivå och avancerad nivå ” beslutat av Rektor.
•
Regelsystem som beskriver ansvar och rättigheter för dig som student och examinator vid examination – läs igenom detta dokument!
• Notera vad som gäller för omexamination, komplettering, tenta på annan ort, meddelande om betyg och provresultat, omprövning av betyg mm.

Målrelaterad betygssättning innebär att:
• Prestationen bedöms i förhållande till målen
• Förutbestämda transparanta betygskriterier
• Hela gruppen kan i princip få ett visst betyg
Relativ betygssättning innebär att:
• Prestationen bedöms/rangordnas i förhållande till andras prestationer
(i gruppen)
• Endast några kan få högsta betyg respektive lägsta
• Enligt en förutbestämd fördelning (t ex normalfördeln.)

•
The programme syllabus regulates the objectives, structure, content and degrees for the programme.
•
The course syllabus regulates each course in regards to content, objectives, examinations, literature, etc. It also always contains the requirements you need to fulfil in order to be registered to the course.
•
Always go through the syllabus before the start of each course

All disabilities are individual and affect the opportunity to study in different ways. That is why all pedagogical assistance is individually adapted.
It is important that you get in touch with a coordinator for students with disabilities as soon as possible even when you are still at the stage of considering what to study.
This is because it can sometimes take time to plan the provision of the help and support you need. In order to be provided with assistance you need to have a medical certificate from a doctor, psychologist or approved assessor for reading and writing difficulties/dyslexia.

•
The examiner for a course is obliged to report suspected cheating to the
Disciplinary Board
•
Exam invigilators will report to the examiner if a student interacts with another student during a written exam or if a student brings prohibited material to a written exam
•
Theses/Degree projects and other papers are examined using software that check for plagiarism

Studying at a university demands that you as a student learn how to:
• analyse on your own and present your own ideas, knowledge and conclusions.
• use references and quote other texts correctly in order to respect other writers’ texts and the copyright protecting them.

When you restructure or summarize a text, state the source in the text and in the list of references.
If you want to present an extract exactly as it is published, copy it exactly and place the text within quotation marks. State the source by the quote and in the list of references.
Learn the correct method of referencing from literature on methodology or from other sources, and also look at the course literature to see examples of how it is done in those.
