“How Museums Could Conquer Social Media” by Mr. Adam Koszary
The Laboratory of Cultural Informatics, Data and Digital Cultural Studies, in collaboration with the Laboratory of Culture and Cultural Management,
the “Cultural Management” strand of the MSc in Cultural Management, Communication and Media, hosted the sixth and last meeting of the cycle “Museums and Social Media”,
organized by the Museum Social Media Culture Research Network. On Thursday, April 25, at 18:00 we hosted Mr. Adam Koszary, an extraordinary and legendary museum social media manager.
His presentation was entitled: “How Museums Could Conquer Social Media”.
Mr. Adam Koszary has worked as a social media manager for many museums, galleries, archives and libraries, and
has consulted on social media development and policy for many companies and private organizations.
He managed to raise awareness of a small museum in England, the Museum of English Rural Life, through social media.
His best online moment was the now famous sheep that went viral and managed to get the attention of ….Elon Musk as well.

Tenerife adventure !
Twelve students from FYD went to Tenerife in week 15 – it is the “South” for many Norwegians, but the students from Vg1 Studies Specialization
were there to learn about the island’s very special geology, climate and history.
The trip was linked to the subject Geography, and geography teacher Odin Thorbjørnsen was with our students together with science teacher Helge Jellestad.
Tenerife and the rest of the Canary Islands have a volcanic geology, says Odin. – We went for a walk in the crater areas and on Pico Teide, the highest volcanic mountain on the island.
Our students got to see good examples of different layers of ash and lava flows.
They gain a different understanding when they can see and feel the types of stone, lift them and feel their weight.
– The climate on Tenerife is very complex, despite the fact that the island is small, he continues.
– We were in desert areas and in the lush Anaga area where there is a humid Atlantic climate.
We love school trips
Student and study trips abroad are a focus area for Fyllingsdalen vgs. Our goal is for as many of our students as possible to visit upper secondary schools and other institutions abroad, meet young people from a different cultural background and gain insight into how they work with academic content. Our students can also take part in hosting students and teachers from the schools we collaborate with.
