S6Ep3: Erasmus in Norway

About this episode

Eileanóir Malone shares her experiences of participating in the Erasmus program in Norway and its impact on her education and professional practice.

We are joined by Eileanóir Malone, an ECEC student educator who tells us all about her experience on Erasmus. She visited Norway and engaged in placement in a Norwegian ECEC setting. We always hear about how the Norwegian approach is the way to go in terms of best practice...but what is it really like? Hear all about it from a student who has experienced it, what did she learn, how did it influence studies and her professional practice and how are we measuring up in Ireland in comparison?
