'I planned to get by with English': Is it worth the effort to learn Norwegian?

With nearly everyone fluent in English and many AI language tools available, it's tempting for many foreigners coming to Norway to coast by and not bother to learn the language. But those that do bother often find learning Norwegian helps build deeper social connections, opens up career opportunities, and fosters a stronger sense of belonging. In Norway, language levels follow the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), ranging from beginner (A1–A2) to intermediate (B1–B2) and advanced (C1–C2). While many jobs and daily interactions can be managed in English, reaching at least a B1 level in Norwegian is often encouraged for deeper social integration, and is now required when applying for citizenship. Alejandro Viquez, from Mexico. Photo: private Alejandro Viquez (38) , from Mexico City, feels lucky he got the opportunity to study the first three levels at the University of Oslo for free ‒ a benefit offered to international students enrolled in a Master's degree at the institution. It was the reason he moved to Norway in the first place ten years ago. Advertisement 'I thought: this is a new language to learn and this is free - this is cool,' he says. 'And it turned out great. The teachers were very good, I got to know new international friends who were all in the same boat as me. In addition, if you, as a student, finished the classes, that was a great tool - whether you wanted to apply for different visas, basically those hours and exams. If you used it well, it could be very fruitful.' Work hasn't been the main motivation to keep studying and practicing, though. 'I have been working mainly in an international environment," says the Senior Communication Manager at Kahoot!. The turning point came when he moved 20 minutes by train outside of Oslo, where people are more used to speaking Norwegian. 'That helped me a lot. In a smaller city, you see the same people more often at the gym, grocery store so you need to interact. You have no choice but to use your Norwegian. I saw that when you actively put in effort and they understand you, you're in.' Today, he is fluent. 'Of course I make mistakes, and sometimes I use the wrong formulation, probably because I'm thinking in Spanish or English format. But people understand. It takes a bit of courage to speak, so I would say to anyone starting now: just give it a shot.' Alistair Franke, from London. Photo: private Social integration was also the reason why London-born Alistair Franke (31) rolled up his sleeves and studied the language. He moved to Oslo four years ago to work in finance and now balances his time between consulting and creating content for his successful Become Norwegian Instagram account. As a 'nearly fluent' speaker, he was determined to learn Norwegian the moment he set foot at Gardermoen Airport. 'I don't like the idea of being a typical 'Brit abroad' who doesn't bother to learn the local language, so for me it's very important to at least try,' says Alistair, who hasn't taken any formal lessons, just tried to immerse himself as much as possible. Advertisement Although he never felt excluded, he believes that not understanding Norwegian can certainly make social situations more challenging. 'For example, at a party or gathering where everyone is speaking Norwegian, it makes it that bit harder to join in. But 90 percent of the time, Norwegians will happily switch to English if they realise you're not keeping up. This is both a blessing and a curse.' To break that pattern, he focused less on getting things perfect and more on just being understood or getting the gist. 'Usually, as long as you say something 'mostly correct', it's enough.' For someone moving to Norway, Alistair has two tips: 'Embrace all the typical aspects of Norwegian culture, even the things you think are weird - that makes everything more enjoyable. Plus, I often ask friends to text me in Norwegian. This is great practice, and it's really easy to copy and paste into Translate for the words I don't understand. They won't even know!' Letícia Ribeiro. Photo: private If Alistair quickly started learning Norwegian to integrate despite working in English, for Brazilian Letícia Ribeiro (33) , Subsea Engineer at Equinor, it was the other way around. She already worked at the company in her hometown of Rio de Janeiro and moved to Norway on a short-term assignment. 'Initially, the plan was to survive with English. As usual, the first year is full of things to adapt to, and the language was not on top of the priorities. At work, I was in a very international team, and it was working fine with my English.' That mindset shifted when her role changed to a department where more Norwegian is spoken, especially during water cooler chats, social events, and informal conversations. Advertisement 'I decided to start learning the language as a result of my own internal pressure. After the first year, once all the moving and adapting was done, I got to the point of feeling uncomfortable and tired of not understanding the language and not 100 percent participating.' She's been studying for the last six months with a 1:1 private teacher online and just finished A2 level. 'I'm still learning. I use it in basic situations, at the grocery store, for example, but not yet in full conversations. I study with the teacher, watch Norwegian TV with subtitles, and I love Duolingo.' A tip for those about to move here? 'This is a hard one. Everyone works in a different way. The best advice is to start as soon as possible so you can try and fail until you find the technique, tool, or activity that works for you. And don't give up. It's okay to take a break, but don't give up." If you want to know more about which different courses are available, check this guide from the City of Oslo. By Marianna Wachelke

Why we need to teach digital literacy in schools

In the modern world, screens are everywhere, from our classrooms and workplaces to our homes and pockets. For children and teenagers, they can be a window to learning, enjoyment and connection with the world. Too much screen time, however, can have serious consequences. Adults spend, on average, between six and seven hours per day in front of screens. In Spain, like much of Europe, children and teenagers spend more than three hours per day looking at screens, though this figure can double at weekends. Such intense exposure has obvious problems, such as taking time from other beneficial activities like sport or socialising in person. It also has negative health impacts, ranging from from short-sightedness, headaches and musculoskeletal disorders to shorter attention spans and delays in the development of children's problem solving and communication skills. Beyond the impacts of social media on young people's mental health, the ubiquity of screens is prompting many families and teachers to wonder whether education without technology, or at least with less screen time, would be better. However, we also need to teach children how to deal with the internet and how to work with technology. Training young people in digital skills, such as critical thinking and cybersecurity, is essential to keeping them safe online. In addition, digital platforms such as Google Classroom, Duolingo and Kahoot! have revolutionised learning, making it both more convenient and more personalised in the classroom and at home. Leer más: Schools around the world are finding ways to balance the risks and benefits of technology in the classroom. One inspiring success story is that of a school in Finland that implemented a hybrid model combining digital learning with hands-on activities. As a result, students improved their academic performance and developed advanced technological skills. Other successful examples – such as the 'Abraza tus valores' (Embrace your values) and 'Párate a pensar' (Stop to think) programmes by Aldeas Infantiles SOS in Spain – promote the balanced use of technology among young people. The United States also boasts programmes such as that developed by The Step by Step School. This initiative emphasises the moderate and purposeful use of technology by incorporating educational apps that support children's development and encourage creativity, setting clear limits for screen time, and promoting off-device activities such as outdoor play and hands-on projects. Screens can provide access to knowledge and make our lives easier, but we cannot allow them to become a substitute for real human experiences. Digital education should be complemented by activities that develop social, emotional and physical skills. The solution to excessive screen use is not saying goodbye to technology in the classroom altogether. Ignoring these technological tools in education would deprive students of the skills they need to function in an increasingly interconnected world. Instead, we have to make sure they are used to their full potential. Leer más: In Spain, 70% of children between the ages of 10 and 15 own a smartphone, with similar or higher figures reported across the EU. While these figures are high, they only give us half of the picture. Smartphones are tools, and like any tool, knowing how to use it properly and safely is vital. Children, like many adults, use the internet and social media uncritically. Being mere consumers of what the internet offers can seriously limit their capacity for social integration. This aspect of the digital divide is where schools can level the playing field by providing access to technological resources and promoting equity of opportunity. By implementing digital literacy programmes, they can ensure that all students, regardless of their socio-economic background, have an equal opportunity to succeed. This is a collective challenge, and parents, teachers and young people must all work together to build healthy, conscious habits. To do this, we have to answer crucial questions about how we use our time in front of screens, and how we can reap technology's benefits without falling prey to its risks. At the end of the day, the goal is not to live without screens, but to learn to live with them in a smart way.

Schools closed and went remote to fight COVID-19. The impacts linger 5 years later.

American schools and the ways students learn have both changed since the height of the COVID-19 pandemic five years ago. After local and federal health officials ordered schools to closein March 2020, most campuses in the U.S. shuttered and educators pivoted to virtual learning. Many students lost fundamental reading and math skills after learning remotely for months and some teachers left the profession altogether by the time schools returned the next school year, national data from the U.S. Department of Education shows. Educators nationwide have said that their students returned to classrooms after the pandemic with lower academic skills than before and it's been a challenge to catch kids up. Student academic setbacks are proving difficult to reverse. Recent national test scores from the National Center for Education Statistics show a bleak picture of recovery in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. Reading scores are worsening and math scores haven't recovered on a national average. "The abrupt shift to remote learn­ing chal­lenged stu­dent and teacher engage­ment, dra­mat­i­cal­ly decreased instruc­tion­al time, and hin­dered stu­dent understanding," reads a report about the effects of COVID-19 pandemic on education from the Annie E. Casey Foundation, a philanthropy focused on ensuring young people have access to opportunity. Michael Petrilli, president of the national education policy think tank Thomas B. Fordham Institute, said the recent test results showing dismal academic recovery lead him to believe American education won't return to pre-pandemic levels until there's "a generation of kids who were not impacted by the pandemic." Many of the kids affected by school closures during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic and lost some of the most foundational skills in reading and math, Petrilli said. "The fourth graders now were in kindergarten when they were sent home. Many were doing Zoom school," Petrilli said. "It's absolutely worth noting that this is a precious period – the early grades." While educational impacts linger, supporters of school closures have said it was the right choice. Last year, Rep. Jahana Hayes, D-Conn., a former high school teacher of 15 years, pushed back against Republican criticism and said closing schools was a safety response based on information available at the time. 'We don't need Brookings (Institute) data to tell us that if kids are not in school, they won't learn. That's pretty basic,' Hayes said, referencing the Washington think tank. 'But we also know if kids are dead, they don't learn.' Here are a few ways education has changed in the past five years. What's going on? Kids' reading, math skills are worsening, new test scores reveal. Many internet tools that educators used during pandemic-based remote learning ‒ from math learning platform Zearn to game-based platform Kahoot! ‒ have a lasting presence in American classrooms today. "One of the most immediate and visible changes brought about by the pandemic was the rapid integration of technology into the classroom," reads a recent report called "Rewiring the Classroom: How the COVID-19 Pandemic Transformed K-12 Education" from the Brookings Institution, a nonprofit public policy organization. "Before COVID-19, many schools were easing into the digital age," wrote Brian Jacob and Cristina Stanojevich for the Brookings Institution. "The switch to remote learning in March 2020 forced schools to fully embrace Learning Management Systems (LMS), Zoom, and educational software almost overnight." Teachers now frequently use these digital tools – along with artificial intelligence – in their classrooms. Educators are struggling to teach kids the skills they lost out on during remote learning while managing a surge in post-pandemic misbehavior, recent data from EdWeek shows. More than 70% of 1,000 educators said in an EdWeek Research Center national survey that students were misbehaving more than they did before the pandemic. Several studies show that kids lost out on fundamental socialization skills during pandemic school closures. Student behavioral problems and mental health needs have become a persistent problem for schools since then. A spike in outbursts in America's classrooms coincides with a national youth mental health crisis, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Several educators have also told USA TODAY over the last few years that students misbehave in class more often since the onset of the pandemic. Wendy Gonzalez, a fourth-grade teacher at Downer Elementary School in Richmond, Calif., said that many of the students in her class didn't "know how to talk to each other" during the 2022-2023 school year. 'These are kids who spent most of their formative years – kindergarten, first grade, second grade, third grade, when you're supposed to be learning social skills – not learning them. They don't have those social skills,' Gonzalez said. More recently, Brittany Archibald-Swank, a veteran fourth-grade teacher at a public school in Urbana, Illinois, said she has had to pause her lessons almost daily over the last several years to help or comfort a student who is off task. Many students in her class "bring a lot of trauma with them that impacts how they learn and how they react in a school setting," she said late last year. Behavior vs. books: US students are rowdier than ever post-COVID. How's a teacher to teach? Educators who were frustrated by remote learning and other conditions quit teaching and departed from classrooms across the nation, leaving school administrators nationwide with shortages of teachers and substitutes on staff, according to a RAND survey from 2021. About 8% of educators left the teaching profession after the 2020-2021 school year, according to the U.S. Department of Education's National Center for Education Statistics. New teachers have replaced some veteran educators since the pandemic, according to the National Council on Teacher Quality. New research on the lingering effects of the pandemic on teachers from University of California, Santa Cruz Professor of Education Lora Bartlett and her colleagues show that the pandemic-era "hastened a downward spiral in career satisfaction and longevity for teachers." "The biggest declines in satisfaction took place in places where teachers described experiencing a lack of support and respect from school leaders and the public during the pandemic and felt that their expertise was often ignored, including in plans to address post-pandemic learning loss," Bartlett wrote in an email. Some educators shared in the research that "increased political intervention" during the COVID-19 pandemic "that sought to curtail teacher freedom and decision-making around curriculum materials and instruction" also played a factor, Bartlett said. Disadvantaged students were the most likely to enter classrooms with new teachers, substitutes, teachers with the least amount of training, and a shrinking number of the most experienced teachers, based on a USA TODAY analysis. To address teacher shortages, some states have tailored their requirements and funded programs to attract teachers to the profession, according to the National Council on Teacher Quality. Many parents who were upset by school closures opted to move their kids outside of their neighborhood public schools – and have kept them there, according to data from EdChoice, a nonprofit organization which advocates for school vouchers. One set of survey results by the National School Choice Awareness Foundation shows that interest in school choice grew during the pandemic. More than half of the 3,820 parents of school-aged children the group surveyed in 2023 either had considered or were considering a new school at the time. Some families chose to enroll their kids in micro schools or other small learning communities while others moved to charter schools, homeschooling or private schools that were open for in-person learning during the pandemic, according to data from EdChoice. School choice advocates also capitalized on parent dissatisfaction with public schools to create new alternatives to traditional education. Several states have since passed legislation that entitles every child's family to use public funds for other schooling options, according to EdChoice's "School Choice in America" dashboard. President Donald Trump has elevated the modern school choice movement since his first presidential term during the COVID-19 pandemic. Now in his second term, Trump signed an executive order in January directing his newly-appointed Education Secretary Linda McMahon to bolster school choice programs and calling on Congress to pass two related bills: the School Choice Now Act and the Education Freedom Scholarships and Opportunity Act. Trump signs executive order Bolstering school choice New data from the National Center for Education Statistics shows that student attendance dipped during COVID-19 and student attendance rates haven't recovered to pre-pandemic levels. Chronic absenteeism rates among students grew from 15% to 26% between 2018 to 2023, due to the pandemic, according to an analysis from the American Enterprise Institute. Chronic absenteeism refers to when a student misses 10% of more of the school year. Chronic absenteeism Is schools' 'biggest problem.' Five reasons kids are missing school. The organization reports the trend began during the COVID-19 pandemic and continued when schools returned to in-person learning. "The urgent need to recover from pandemic learning loss will be severely hampered by current rates of chronic absenteeism, making it the most pressing post-pandemic problem in public schools," according to the American Enterprise Institute's analysis.

Pupils told to use apps in schools despite calls for smartphone ban

Schools are demanding pupils download apps for schoolwork despite fears over allowing smartphones in the classroom. Almost two-thirds of secondary school children surveyed by the Parentkind charity said teachers ask them to use apps for assignments, while more than a fifth said they are regularly made to use smartphones in lessons. Many schools now encourage pupils to use apps specially designed for their institution, which keep families updated on important information and act as a centralised hub for homework and marking. Some also use technology to enhance lessons through apps such as Kahoot! an AI-powered game platform that turns teaching content into quizzes. But experts warned allowing students to access smartphones for lessons likely serves to legitimise their use throughout the school day, despite known risks. The Parentkind poll, shared exclusively with The Telegraph, found that 60 per cent of secondary school children have been asked to download an app for schoolwork and timetables, while 22 per cent are regularly required to use smartphones in lessons. The charity commissioned polling firm Censuswide to survey 2,000 British pupils aged 11 to 15 between Feb 11 and Feb 19 2025, plus 2,001 parents of children in the same age bracket. It found widespread use of smartphones during the school day, despite ministers' claims that most head teachers have already banned them outright. The poll revealed that just one in seven (14 per cent) of pupils said they are banned from using smartphones at all on the school premises, while 39 per cent are allowed to use them during lunchtime and breaks. More than two in five teenagers said their classmates use phones in lessons 'every day', while 22 per cent said widespread access to mobiles disturbed learning on a daily basis. Parentkind said the findings showed allowing schools to set their own rules on smartphone use was 'simply not tough enough'. The charity is calling on ministers to make phones in schools a safeguarding issue and for Ofsted to measure children's access to them as part of school inspections. Jason Elsom, the chief executive of Parentkind, told The Telegraph: 'Children are telling us what we all suspect, smartphones are getting in the way of lessons. 'This polling shows that we still have a long way to go to rid schools of smartphones, with teenagers telling us their classmates are regularly flouting the rules and disturbing lessons through smartphone use. 'Society has sleepwalked into a position where children are addicted to harmful 'electronic drugs' and have no escape from their digital dealers. School should be a safe haven.' 'Phones have no place in the classroom' The Government recently rejected a Tory amendment to its schools Bill that would have introduced legislation banning smartphones from the classroom. Bridget Phillipson, the Education Secretary, criticised the proposal as a 'headline-grabbing gimmick' and insisted that most schools already prohibit the use of smartphones. She told MPs in January: 'I agree that phones have no place in the classroom. It is entirely right that schools take firm action to stop their use, and I know that that is what the vast majority of schools already do.' Current rules in England leave it up to schools to devise their own policies on pupils' smartphone use, with some opting for an outright ban while others limit their use to break times. It comes despite many countries pushing ahead with smartphone bans in schools amid fears over children's access to the portable devices. Hungary and the Netherlands rolled out mobile bans in schools last year following a damning report by the United Nations which said that they were distracting, likely to have a 'negative link' with academic performance and could be used to bully and harass peers. More than half – 53 per cent – of parents polled by Parentkind said they supported an all-out ban on phones being used on school premises. Nearly three-quarters said they backed stricter measures to rid classrooms of phones, while still allowing them to be used during breaks in the school day. Seventy per cent of parents said they wanted tech companies to develop a new wave of so-called 'dumb phones' for teenagers, which would limit their access to social media and harmful websites. Mr Elsom said: 'Parents tell us this is one of their biggest worries and they are increasingly looking for a tough response'. A Government spokesman said: 'Mobile phones are a distraction from learning, which is why school leaders should be restricting their use and we have clear guidance on how to do this. 'The vast majority of schools already do this in some way, and have the power to confiscate devices if pupils fail to follow the rules. 'By the summer, robust new protections for children will be in force through the Online Safety Act to protect them from harmful content and ensure they have an age-appropriate experience online.'
