Titel 1 Digitale Hjælpemidler til Årsprøve og Eksamen

Du må medbringe alt materiale, som er i fysisk form, eller som kan opbevares lokalt på din computer. ”Opbevares lokalt” betyder materiale, som er gemt på din computer og ikke fx i et digitalt værktøj eller program (dog må du gerne have materiale liggende i et noteprogram).

Hvis du bruger et noteprogram (som fx OneNote) skal du kunne tilgå dine noter uden internetadgang. I OneNote gør du følgende: Synkroniser de notesbøger du skal bruge, hold dem åbne og slå automatisk synkronisering fra under eksamen.

Du må medbringe computer men IKKE telefon eller andet kommunikationsudstyr (som fx smartwatch eller smartglasses).

Du må ikke bruge digitale værktøjer og programmer m.v. (herunder AI) – dog må du bruge et tekstbehandlings (skal fungere offline).

Som udgangspunkt må du altså IKKE tilgå internettet, men følgende online materiale må tilgås under den skriftlige eksamen og i forberedelsestiden til den mundtlige eksamen:

Titel 6 Witches

For this theme, the students have worked with the witch as a cultural and literary figure. The theme has focused on how different societies have viewed witches and witchcraft and included an element of literary and social history. The theme began with looking at one of the oldest examples of a witch in the Western literary canon, Circe in the Odyssey. From there, the students made their way through Shakesperean witches, the Salem Witch Trials, the view of witchcraft in Dark Romanticism, the Victorian view on witches and witchcraft, the witch in modern society and the witch in contemporary society. The theme has combined theoretical research into the witch with literary representations and focused on how the view of witches in literature, and other works, reflects the gender and social norms of their time. As such, the theme has also included the concept of “witch hunts” as social control with McCarthyism and #MeToo as examples.
