Improving visual skills, an online course in collaboration with students from all over the world

The course is aimed at lower and upper school students (10-14 years), but given the variety of topics, it will be of interest to anyone who wants to improve their visual skills and interpretation.

  • The lessons are taught on a laptop, tablet or smartphone and learning is done using slides that are either displayed on a screen in the classroom or printed out.
  • The lessons are chaptered, but can be used in any order, depending on the time and age of the students.
  • This course is accessible worldwide. It is assumed that the teacher can read and understand English, but the course can also be delivered in the student's native language. The slides for the students are mostly self-explanatory.

The idea is to create a worldwide network and there is a strong desire for schools to collaborate by sharing views and practical lessons.
