HSN-34 dit jaar als een digitale conferentie

HSN-34 dit jaar als een digitale conferentie

HSN-34 kon niet plaatsvinden wegens de COVID-problematiek. Daarom organiseren we dit jaar een digitale conferentie.
Bestel tickets hier.
Een succesvolle HSN-33 in Zwolle is achter de rug. HSN-34 kon niet plaatsvinden wegens de COVID-problematiek. Om een meer dan dertig jaar lange traditie niet te onderbreken, organiseren we deze digitale conferentie want ook in coronatijden blijft het onderwijs Nederlands in de kern van elk onderwijscurriculum.

En dat is meer dan terecht! Is het niet via taal dat mensen betekenissen en dus kennis – een niet onbelangrijk goed in onze kennismaatschappij – construeren? Binnen de HSN Onderwijs Conferentie Nederlands trachten de deelnemers in de vele bijdragen antwoorden te zoeken op de vaak complexe en moeilijke oefening die het onderwijs Nederlands met zich meebrengt, vaak in een multilinguale context.
