KOM is a flexible, 80-hour course at UPL that supports the development and refinement of your communicative skills and attitudes in order to make learning happen.
You work on an individual project, in which you apply what you learn in the course's workshops and explore different ways of communicating. You formulate the project yourself and have a lot of freedom in that: from lectures to learning resources, classroom interactions to independent lab instruction, seminar design to Canvas design, etc. We will look at communication holistically, in all its appearances. Through trial-and-error, creative explorations, feedback and supervision, and test-runs in authentic contexts, your project develops, and your communicative competence refines. All the way, we ask ourselves: does this improve the learning?
After the course, you will have created ways of working as well as materials that you can use in your teaching right away.
