In the autumn semester of 2024, we are offering digital courses at Level A1 (Introductory Level, first part), Level A2 (Introductory Level, second part), Level B1A (Intermediate Level, first part). and Level B1B (Intermediate Level, second part).

Level A2: This course is designed for students who have some prior knowledge of Norwegian. The instructional material covers chapters 7-10 of https://www.norwegiancourse.info/. Additional material will be provided by your teacher.

Level B1A/B1B: This course is for students at Intermediate Level and covers the book Ellingsen & McDonald: STEIN PÅ STEIN. B1B is for those who have already completed B1A (i.e., the digital B1 course last semester).

 

Who can participate?

The digital Norwegian courses are available to all employees at UiT, regardless of which campus you are stationed at. However, employees based in Tromsø are strongly encouraged to attend the physical courses offered at Campus Tromsø, if practical. When there are many registrations, those who cannot attend in person will be given priority.

 

Timetable and duration.

The courses will run over 12 weeks, starting from week 37 (September 9th). There will be two digital classes each week (on Teams/Canvas), with each class lasting for one clock hour. The exact weekly schedule will be determined in consultation with the course participants.
