NEW WEB PAGES FOR TEACHERS
The project Bringing QoG research to the classroom is now fully visible on the Internet,
although at this point only in Swedish. Please visit the Swedish version of our website and look
under the tab Lärare. Here, you find basic information about QoG and links to already existing
and pages that can be useful for teachers. The new material will be found under Stödmaterial.
Here, you can also find our first filmed lecture. In the months to come, we will post more filmed
lectures on the website. The films are produced to be used in schools but can also be helpful for
students at University level.
