✏Animate Swedish is a project that I’m developing together with Vincent Saares. I´m happy to be combining forces with Vincent, who has graduated as a performing arts educator. He currently works as a freelancer in acting, screenwriting, drama camps and school play direction.
📖The project aims to strengthen Swedish teaching by evoking emotions. The students get to participate in planning their own learning material, and create dialogues that are then used in animation. I am happy to revisit and benefit from my thesis I did in Edinburgh Napier University, on the topic "How to best use educational animation videos for second language learning".
💬 In August 2024 we presented Animate Swedish at SRO's summer Swedish at Hanaholmen. Thanks to Eija Heikkala and Sini Sydänmaanlakka for allowing us to come and participate as guest speakers!
✨ I also want to thank the Tre Smeder foundation. With the help of their grant, we have been able to develop Animate Swedish.
✍ Our next step is to apply for additional funding, with the goal of being able to start the project in the fall of 2025.
