Study visit 2012
Group no 189 - round 2 Time: 7/5/2012 - 11/05/2012 Venue: Leirvik/Stord, Norway HOW TO GET THERE?: There are 3 international airports you can use, Bergen, Haugesund and Stavanger. From these it will take you between 1 and 3 hours by express bus or katamaran to get to Leirvik, Stord where you'll stay during your visit. Another option is of course to fly via Oslo, the capital Norway, then on to Bergen or Haugesund, both a good 2,5 hours journey by bus or katamaran to Leirvik. Ca price of a return ticket to/from Bergen to Leirvik, will be around 300 nkr. There is also a direct flightconnexion to/from Oslo from Stord Lufthamn, Sørstokken, at the moment Danish Air Transport (DAT) is operating the flights, see http://www.stordlufthavn.no/flyruter.htm for further info. Express buses links up all Norway, and going by railway from Oslo to Bergen is also a fantastic option if you have time and really want to see the country. The journey from Oslo to Bergen by daytime train will take around 7 hours and costs from nkr 400 for a one way ticket. For information on the airports and other means of tranportation, click on one or more of the following links: For Norwegian airlines trafficing these Airports, see Danish Air Transport (Oslo- Stord) Other airlines trafficing these airports (some of the biggest) Ryanair (only Haugesund ) For bus, katamaran or railway services: Tide (katamaran) NSB (rail) WHERE TO STAY? You are all booked in at the same hotel at Leirvik, Stord - this year we use Almås Hotel, a small family cosy hotel ca 400 meters from the town centre of Leirvik. However, on this visit, we'll travel around a bit, and thus stay one night in Skånevik Fjordhotel and one night in Rosendal (in Rosendal we will use 2 different hostels, get back to that later on). For more information on our region,click on to http://www.visitsunnhordland.no/en/ Sunnhordland is a region between Bergen and Stavanger with many small municipalities.Facing the same challenges, six municipalities in this region have decided to cooperate on educational issues. The organisation Forum for Oppvekst i Sunnhordland was established to help to solve common challenges in the region. The idea is that cooperating on a regional level leads to better results than each municipality working alone. Among the tasks of the organisation is providing both in-service training and further education for teachers and pre-schoolteachers as well as initiating measures to improve the quality of education in general. The study visit will present the advantages of regional cooperation and show various methods used to solve pedagogical challenges in the region. What? Participants will learn about: How?
