Workshops for Communication for Learning

This series of workshops focuses on different aspects of communication in teaching and especially on the effects of different ways of communicating on the learning.

About the workshops

All workshops are interactive, so be prepared to try and do, not just listen. The workshops are run in English, but you can use Swedish in the exercises if desired. The workshops are linked to the course Communication for Learning (KOM), but are open for anyone to participate in, even if you are not taking the course.

For the Communication for Learning (KOM) course participants: You choose the four workshops from the menu that help you best in your project and development process.

Each year, we offer a menu of 8-9 different workshops, typically planned at the beginning of the month. Each workshop has its own topic. The topics, their order, and the frequency changes per year, based on popular demand, new requests, and insights that come up during the course. We invite you to share any wishes you have.

If the workshop becomes full, participants taking the Communicating for Learning course will have priority.

If a participant at a later point wish to do the KOM course, these workshops will count.
