About Us Are you a teacher education student or have experience leading children and young people? Do you enjoy creating curiosity, explaining things in simple ways, and getting a group to feel: "Wow, I want to learn more about this"? Clockwork Skolbemanning is now seeking engaged and confident educational activity leaders for consulting assignments at Kodcentrum. You will conduct inspiring activities including programming, digital creation, and problem-solving for children and young people in Västerås, Eskilstuna, and Katrineholm. This assignment is particularly well-suited for you if you are studying to become a teacher and want to gain valuable experience in pedagogical leadership alongside your studies. About the Company Kodcentrum is a non-profit organization that since 2014 has given children and young people the opportunity to explore programming, digital creation, AI, and cybersecurity—always free of charge. Our mission is to give children and young people access to knowledge, role models, and context that strengthens their confidence, creativity, and ability to create, understand, and influence the digital world. Our vision is a society where all children and young people, regardless of background, have the knowledge, courage, and tools to understand, influence, and shape digital development. Kodcentrum works to reduce digital exclusion and broaden the image of who can understand, use, and create digital technology. As a bridge builder between children and young people, schools, business, and society, we create pathways into the digital world. Through collaboration with schools, companies, municipalities, authorities, and non-profit organizations, we give more children and young people the opportunity to discover technology's creative possibilities and develop their digital agency. As an educational activity leader, you will be employed as a consultant by Clockwork Skolbemanning and conduct assignments in Kodcentrum's activities. What the Company Offers Kodcentrum offers you a ready-made pedagogical structure, relevant materials, and a joint introduction before assignments. During the training, you will learn about the activities and target audience, try out materials and technology, and practice how to introduce and explain activities to students. You don't need to know everything from the start. Kodcentrum provides the activity-specific knowledge you need, while you contribute your pedagogical leadership, engagement, and ability to create a sense of security in a group. You are offered: * a practical and activity-focused introduction before the assignment * ready-made lesson and workshop structures * materials and equipment for the activities * a fulfilling side job with great social impact * experience independently leading children and student groups * the opportunity to work with multiple activities during the fall Kodcentrum values continuity and wants the same activity leaders to return for multiple classroom visits, workshops, and events. Your Responsibilities As an educational activity leader, your most important task is to create a safe, clear, and inspiring experience for children and young people. You prepare yourself based on Kodcentrum's ready-made structure and then lead the activity from start to finish. Depending on the activity, you may: * conduct classroom visits with activities in logic, problem-solving, and computational thinking * lead workshops in LEGO robotics programming * introduce tasks and explain instructions in a clear and age-appropriate way * help students who need support or encounter challenges * keep the group together, maintain the pace, and manage time * create engagement and encourage students to dare to try * staff an activity booth and actively welcome visitors * collaborate with Kodcentrum's staff and volunteers * handle and organize materials and equipment before and after the activity * conclude and summarize lessons and workshops During classroom visits, the activity leader typically leads an approximately 60-minute lesson and is responsible for ensuring the activity can be conducted independently. At certain larger events, multiple activity leaders work together. Activities may also involve you conducting the same workshop for multiple student groups during a single day. You will need to maintain structure, energy, and quality throughout all sessions. Here you get the chance to do much more than hold a regular lesson. You get to be the person who opens a new world for children and young people, makes technology comprehensible, and transforms programming from something unfamiliar into something fun, creative, and possible. You will meet students who may have never tried programming or worked with this type of material before. Your way of explaining, encouraging, and creating energy could be what helps a student discover an entirely new interest. At the same time, you will develop yourself. For you who are studying to become a teacher, this is a concrete and merit-building way to apply your knowledge in practice. Your Profile We are looking for someone who is comfortable in a leadership role and dares to take center stage with a group. You have an easy time creating connections with children and young people and can quickly build trust even when meeting a group for the first time. You are: * pedagogical, clear, and confident in your leadership * engaging and skilled at sparking curiosity * relationship-building and socially perceptive * responsible, reliable, and well-prepared * self-driven and proactive * calm and solution-oriented when unexpected things happen * flexible and good at adapting your explanations * comfortable following a ready-made pedagogical structure It is important that you can walk into a classroom with a professional and clear presence, create focus, and at the same time make the activity fun and exciting. You also need to be able to stay calm and find solutions if, for example, materials or an app don't work as expected. For us, responsibility means, among other things, that you arrive on time, bring the right materials, know what the assignment entails, and deliver what you have promised. If information is missing or conditions change, you are expected to take initiative, provide feedback, and contact the responsible person. Application Is this you?
