Dutch term

werkvorm

Dutch to English Art/Literary Education / Pedagogy
The context is:
Om de betrokkenheid van de deelnemers te optimaliseren hebben we gekozen voor een aantal actieve WERKVORMEN: workshops en discussierondes. Dit om alle deelnemers daadwerkelijk de mogelijkheid te geven hun kennis te delen, good practices te communiceren en hun opinie m.b.t.. de thema’s te geven.

I am thinking about 'ways of working'.

Do you have a better suggestion?

Thanks

Ik heb enkelvoud opgeschreven omdat het zo in de vraag staat. Uiteraard is moet uiteindelijke resultaat meervoud zijn.
agree Erik Macki : This is a great option, too. My only problem is that, to me, "style" has more a connotation of personal flavor/preference by the teacher, and here the text seems to be more about specific didactic forms or methods.

agree Erik Macki : This is actually a good option: it's close to the original AND this Web page gives evidence of this wording for a similar concept at an English-speaking institution.
