Course Structured Educational Visit to Schools & Training Seminars in Norway
This structured course is designed for teachers, head teachers, principals and other school staff who would like to learn about the Norwegian education system within the context of Norwegian culture. Although the pedagogic encounters with schools are focused on Primary and Secondary levels, other educational sectors may also benefit from the general approach of this course.
Description
Our 7-Day Course is for those who want to learn about Norwegian education and culture through a combination of pedagogic encounters with schools, seminars, field projects “Contexts4Content”, and workshops.
English Matters will select educational institutions related to Primary and Secondary school levels. Participants will learn about educational organisation and management of learning and will have the opportunity to share their experience and ideas with colleagues from a variety of schools around Europe.

1. Pedagogic encounters with schools to learn about educational organisation and management of learning.
2. Seminars and workshops to explore specific aspects of the education system and culture of Norway.

Methodology & assessment
Allowing yourself to spend enriching days in full contact with Norwegian society and culture, and combining this with pedagogic encounters with schools, will bring you an in-depth understanding of the Norwegian education system.
The way in which students are educated can be a window to a deeper vision of a society. This can also lead to reflection on why a society educates its people in a certain way and may encourage you to see your own education system from a refreshed perspective.
This combination of elements will help build a holistic vision of education and culture in Norway from several enriching perspectives.
Materials, digital tools & other learning resources
You will have access to a wide range of materials and resources such as an intuitive E-learning platform which will serve as the hub for all digital resources, including multimedia content and interactive exercises. You will explore both digital and analog teaching materials, integrating customary resources with innovative tools to create engaging and effective lessons. Additionally, field learning proyects will provide hands-on, real-world experiences that bridge theory and practice.
