Finally Friday, a week of home office in Adult Education!
What an activity among teachers, publishers, Facebook pages with teaching programs, etc. Just take your hat off! Several of our students are vulnerable when it comes to understanding information and using digital platforms. Since we see that many students have Whats App, some teachers are arranging to use this as a communication tool with the weakest students.
Other teachers have also thought that there are more people who are not able to use their Norwegian language now. So today we worked on the possibility for students to have digital language friends, across our classes. So that better students can talk to weaker students via chat on Facetime, WhatsApp, Skype, Teams, etc.
Monday 23 March
New week, new opportunities. What a circus to have classes on Teams. Today we had five people join us and two of them were new from last week. One joined the meeting via WhatsApp phone. This participant tried to join our Teams meeting via his phone, he couldn't log in, even with the help of his son. He finally gave up. We got to talk through what tasks they were going to do this week, and information.
There is a great sense of humor in the group. Some are at work during the day while others have been laid off.

Almost Easter... yay!! Here I am working outside at the Steiner School's school garden in Øverland. It's possible to prune trees and guide students with computer logins, even on a Saturday.
