study unit requires active commitment each
week,

activities are the foundation for deep
learning.
Students receive regularly ?triggers? (complex
questions), guidance and resourceful lectures
as a
pedagogical framework. The ?triggers? are real-
life connected and Nordic in their design and
the
resourceful lectures are a blend between
theoretical discussions and Nordic guest
lectures.
During all learning activities in this master
program there will be a continuous focus on
social, teaching and cognitive presence.

among
learners is essential for developing common
purposes and inquiry in each learning unit. The

collaboratively
starting point.
