About the podcast

Fika chats on the future of education continue every other week, featuring guests from within or outside KTH for knowledge sharing, exchange of experiences, and inspiration for educational development. The podcasts are usually recorded live, but occasionally episodes are pre-recorded. And sometimes, when we visit different KTH environments, the podcasts are best enjoyed as video podcasts (on KTH Play or YouTube).

Marcus Lithander chats over coffee (fika) with guests from or outside KTH about the future of education in general and our change programme " Future Education at KTH " in particular.
