      Eriksen, Liss; Huemer, Jeanette (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013-02-21)
      Ideelt skal et studium innen praktiske fag føre til et «kick» når man er ferdig og står i den praktiske virksomheten studiet kvalifiserer for. Overgangen mellom profesjonsstudier og praksis har imidlertid generelt vist seg å være en akilleshæl. Artikkelen er en beskrivelse og en diskusjon av et fornyende studentaktivt pedagogisk prosjekt, som et alternativ til tradisjonell klasseromsundervisning. ...

      Njor, Sisse Helle; Heinävaara, Sirpa; Stefansdóttir, Hrefna; Nygård, Mari; Guðmundsdóttir, Eva María; Bhargava, Sameer; Leivonen, Aku; Campbell, Suzanne; Søborg, Bo; Hofvind, Solveig Sand-Hanssen; Sarkeala, Tytti; Vejborg, Ilse; Lamminmäki, Maarit (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-11-22)
      Several studies have shown that attendance rates are lower among non-Western immigrants than among natives. As the Nordic countries have quite similar health systems and populations but also differences in the organisation of their organised mammography screening programmes, differences in attendance rates could highlight organisational factors that might increase the attendance rates. Mammography ...
