"Teaching is not transmitting or communicating information any longer and learning is not replicating information. It is rather to transform information into something new. The big challenge that we have today is providing students with tools to make sense of the information and producing insights that have consequences on our actions"  says Tessy Cerratto Pargman, Associate professor in Human computer interaction at the Department of Computer and Systems Sciences (DSV) at Stockholm University and guest in Crosstalks on education, released on March 19 at 6 PM CET.

Crosstalks – Where great minds meet!

Crosstalks is an international academic talk show, broadcast once a month by two of Sweden's top universities – KTH Royal Institute of Technology and Stockholm University. It is a platform for discussions on global challenges in an open and on-going dialogue with viewers around the world. The tone of the programme is relaxed, with a twinkle in its eye: just like a good, engaging lecture. All talks are always available at www.crosstalks.tv.

Tessy Cerratto Pargman, Associate professor in Human computer interaction at the Department of Computer and Systems Sciences (DSV) at Stockholm University.

Uno Fors, Professor in IT and Learning at The Department of Computer and Systems Sciences (DSV) at Stockholm University.
