title: Special Graduate Survey 2019

description: The "Special Graduate Survey 2019" is a survey conducted by NIFU. The survey was conducted in the spring of 2019. It was conducted for people who had graduated with a master's degree from Norwegian universities in 2016 and Norwegian people who were expected to graduate from foreign universities in 2015 or 2016. The survey has questions related to the transition to the labor market and labor market situation 2-3 years after completing education. It allows comparison between people who had their education from abroad and people who had their education from Norway, and studies of people with education in all disciplines. The survey also contains background information on gender, age, immigration status. Questions about the labor market situation include unemployment, horizontal and vertical maladaptation, time to first job and job satisfaction. The candidate surveys have been conducted as so-called half-yearly surveys and special surveys. This survey is a special edition of the Special Graduate Survey. Special surveys are conducted approximately every two years. They are usually conducted longer after the exam, usually focus on selected groups, and can cover a wider range of topics than the mid-year surveys.

title: Virtual Reality in Health and Medicine Education, 2019

description: The VirSam project aimed to give students in medicine, health and social sciences the opportunity to practice interprofessional collaborative learning (TPS) along patient courses in virtual arenas independent of other scheduled teaching. An important reason for creating virtual arenas is the practical challenges of giving students the opportunity to train enough in clinical situations (time on task), especially where they have to interact with others.

Traditionally, most of the students' contact with patients has taken place through hospital practice. Shorter length of stay means that the time the individual student has with patients is greatly reduced. There is thus a need for solutions that make the limited time they have with patients used more efficiently. Virtual arenas can be used for realistic training as preparation. Virtual solutions that are web-based and available to different groups of students (basic and further education) regardless of time and place.

The project systematically initiated the use of virtual arenas, a technology for teaching and learning that has been used to a very small extent. The project was well rooted in the international front on research on learning in 3D virtual arenas. The project responded to the recognized need for increased time on relevant assignments (time on task) and developed students' opportunities for self-regulated learning. The learning challenges were met by using the project's expertise from medical and health education, ICT / game technology and pedagogy to create innovative learning.

More applications have been developed an are described at www.virsam.no. The effect of one of these, ABCDE (systematic clinical observation) was studied in a four part randomized controlled trial (RCT) with 600 nursing and medicine students. In the RCT, the effect of both individual and groups-based training in VR was examined and found to be similar (non-inferior) to traditional teaching.

title: Graduate Survey, 2019 - Half a Year After Graduation

description: "The Graduate Survey 2019 - Half a Year After Graduation" is a survey conducted by NIFU. The study sheds light on the transition from education to work among people who completed a master's degree in the spring of 2019. This study also includes people with a bachelor's degree in science and technology. ("Realist Bachelor" and "Engineering Bachelor") included. The candidate surveys have been conducted as so-called half-yearly surveys and special surveys. The mid-year surveys are conducted by NIFU every other year, among people with a master's degree six months after the exam. The surveys include most candidate groups with a higher degree exam from Norwegian educational institutions. The surveys provide good information about the labor market situation of the new graduates. From 2007, the survey has also included questions about the candidates' assessments of the education they have taken, the place of study and the extent to which they have experienced the study as relevant in relation to the needs of the labor market. Most of the questions have remained unchanged over time, so that the half-yearly surveys form the basis for good time series data.

title: Programming As a Catalyst for System Understanding, 2019

description: The project, a Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) project, originally sought to investigate whether students' understanding of dynamic systems was positively or negatively affected by having to model the system they were to investigate in Python. The data, except for the reflection assignments, were collected during the work on the course's last submission. The reflection assignments were requested afterwards. After a thorough evaluation of the project and the course, the project staff decided that a shift in focus would make sense. The purpose of the project was thus to investigate students' response to the transition from student-passive to student-active learning and the use of programming and "computational practices" in a subject in geoscience. In line with the SoTL tradition, the data is used to improve teaching, and the work will mainly be aimed at providing tips, advice and tools to other teachers in a similar situation as in this project.

title: Mass Media Survey, 2020

description: Since 1967, Statistics Norway (SSB) has conducted several surveys on the use of mass media. From 1991 onwards, Statistics Norway has conducted quarterly surveys annually with a cross-sectional sample of people between the ages of 9 and 79. The purpose of the survey is to provide an overall presentation of Norwegians' use of different types of mass media and the availability of such media. The results are published annually in the Norwegian Media Barometer (www.ssb.no/medie). The Mass Media Survey measures Norwegians' use of various mass media throughout an entire year, and the data collection is therefore carried out quarterly throughout the year, with four equally large sub-samples per quarter. The interviews are distributed on all days of the week in order to provide a picture of seasonal variations in media use. Since the purpose of the survey is to provide an overall presentation of the use of mass media, it is asked about the use of different types of media: audio media (radio, music playback), film media (television, video, recordings from television, etc.), the Internet, and print media ( books, newspapers, magazines, periodicals, etc.). With an increasing supply of new mass media, and not least platforms, it is becoming more and more complex to cover the total pattern of mass media use in the population. It is especially challenging to distinguish between the use of traditional media platforms and online media. The Mass Media Survey therefore includes some changes each year, and makes adjustments to capture the use of new media channels and platforms. Nevertheless, it is important to emphasize that an important purpose in the survey is to measure developments over time, which means that more traditional media still have a large place in the survey.

title: GeoHealthAccess - The Geography of Vulnerability and Health Service Access in Southern Africa, 2016

description: This project aimed to improve access to health care for those who need it the most, as such more knowledge is needed on barriers to access in resource poor contexts. Access to health services is determined by an interaction of individual vulnerability and geographical accessibility. To understand this interaction, information on physical surroundings, such as topography and availability of facilities, must be combined with people's own evaluation of access, as well as health status and socioeconomic background. The results from our analysis was used to ensure that policies are targeted at the most central barriers in specific areas, for specific groups. If the most vulnerable parts of the population have access to health service, less marginalized groups should also have decent access. The main research question was: How do individual level vulnerability and geographical characteristics affect access to health services in resource poor settings?

title: Travel Survey 2020, 2nd Quarter, Person File

description: The Travel Survey is conducted four times a year, once every quarter. The main purpose of the survey is to register Norwegian citizens travel habits in Norway and abroad. In addition to data on Norwegian's travel habits, data is also collected about travels, border travels, use of tobacco and alcohol, wood burning, influenza vaccination and attitudes toward immigration.

This is the Person File for the 2nd Quarter of the Travel Survey 2020. 

For every quarter in 2020 a sample of 2 000 persons in the ages 16 to 79 were drawn. In the fourth quarter an additional sample of 1 000 persons  were also drawn, and only asked about tobacco and alcohol. There is some variation in the response rate between the quarters, with 56 percent as the lowest in the fourth quarter, and almost 65 percent as the highest in the second quarter. If one look at all the quarters as one, and exclude the additional sample in the fourth quarter, the response rate totals to 59 percent. The most important reasons for non-reply in the Travel Survey 2020 is that we were unable to get in touch with the respondents and that some of them do not wish to participate. It is specially younger persons within the age group 25-44 ears, and people with lower or no education, that is the hardest group to get responses from for the survey.

The attached report examines if the non-reply has resulted in deviations from the original sample with regards to the markers age, gender, education, country background and region. We do find some deviation with regards to distribution of age. People in the age between 25-44 years is some less represented and people in the age 45-66 is more represented in the net sample compared to other age groups. The biggest deviation occurs when studying educational level and country background. People with high school or higher education is over represented in the net sample compared to people with lower education. The same applies to people with Norwegian country background compared to people with other country background.
