Port Anders gata 9 , Västerås, Švédsko

About Us Are you a teacher student or do you have experience leading children and young people? Do you enjoy creating curiosity, explaining things in a simple way, and getting a group to feel: "Wow, I want to learn more about this"? Clockwork School Staffing is now seeking engaged and confident educational activity leaders for consulting assignments at Kodcentrum. You will conduct inspiring activities in programming, digital creativity, 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 creativity, AI, and cybersecurity—always free of charge. Our mission is to provide children and young people with access to knowledge, role models, and context that strengthens their self-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, industry, 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 the creative possibilities of technology and develop their digital agency. As an educational activity leader, you will be employed as a consultant with Clockwork School Staffing and conduct assignments within Kodcentrum's operations. What the Company Offers Kodcentrum offers you a ready-made pedagogical structure, relevant materials, and a joint introduction before the assignments. During the training, you will get to know the operations and target audience, try out materials and technology, and practice how to introduce and explain the 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, your engagement, and your ability to create a sense of safety in a group. You are offered: * a practical and operations-focused introduction before the assignment * ready-made lesson and workshop structures * materials and equipment for the activities * a rewarding side job with great social value * experience leading children and student groups independently * the opportunity to work with multiple activities throughout the fall Kodcentrum values continuity and wants the same activity leaders to be able to return for multiple classroom visits, workshops, and events. Your Tasks 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 robot programming * introduce tasks and explain instructions in a clear and age-appropriate way * help students who need support or encounter problems * keep the group focused, 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 a approximately 60-minute lesson and is responsible for the activity being conducted independently. At some larger events, multiple activity leaders work together. Activities may also involve conducting the same workshop for multiple student groups during a single day. In these cases, you need to be able to maintain structure, energy, and quality throughout all sessions. Here you get the chance to do much more than just hold a regular lesson. You get to be the person who opens up a new world for children and young people, makes technology understandable, 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 studying to become a teacher, this is a concrete and merit-enhancing way to apply your knowledge in practice. Your Profile We are looking for someone who feels comfortable in a leadership role and dares to take charge in front of a group. You have an easy way of making contact 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-directed and initiative-taking * calm and solution-oriented when something unexpected happens * flexible and good at adapting your explanations * comfortable following a ready-made pedagogical structure It is important that you can enter a classroom with a professional and clear presence, create focus, and at the same time make the activity fun and enthusiastic. You also need to be able to remain 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 involves, and keep your promises. If information is missing or circumstances change, you are expected to take initiative, follow up, and contact the responsible person. Application Is this the job for you?
