DUO FAMILY TRAINING ONLINE COURSE
|
Duo's Self-study Family Training online course (in English) has been designed to offer an insight into the fascinating world of the intercultural couple and their journey into parenthood. The course includes a number of features that are designed to help couples through the process of having and raising children in an intercultural environment. Thematic articles are coupled with lecture videos, homework assignments, audio and video clips, quotes from intercultural families, discussion topics and bonus material in order to give the couples a rounded self-study course.
A number of topics that intercultural families have to deal with, such as combining different cultures, bi-/multilingualism and child’s language development will be discussed, as well as the very crux of the concept. The course will take into account expert opinion on the subject, as well as first-hand accounts and information from people who are parents of intercultural families themselves. The course is free and you can take part whenever and wherever you like. All you need is a computer, an internet connection and speakers. |
