CLAIRE – Combining Linguistic resources with AI tutors for Role-play-based language Education in the healthcare sector
The CLAIRE project aims to transform workplace language training for migrant healthcare professionals by integrating AI-powered conversational tutors with advanced linguistic resources grounded in Pedagogical Construction Grammar.
More specifically, the CLAIRE project seeks to equip learners with innovative AI tools and linguistic materials to master professional communication skills in Norwegian, Swedish, and Danish, focusing on domain-specific language essential for effective doctor-patient interactions and high-quality care.
Globally, CLAIRE aims to enhance professional integration and employability of migrant learners, aligning with Nordic social policies.
To achieve this, CLAIRE fosters collaboration between research teams from 4 partner institutions:
- UiT The Arctic University of Norway,
- University of Gothenburg,
- KTH Royal Institute of Technology, and
- Technical University of Denmark.
Together, our efforts aim to create a blueprint for AI tools tailored to individual learners' needs.
The project will deliver several key innovations including an AI-powered chatbot for learners of Norwegian (SnakKIs) as well as expanded constructicon resources for Swedish and Norwegian, focusing on healthcare-specific language patterns.
The CLAIRE project is funded by the Nordic Council of Ministers, under the educational grant program “Nordplus Nordic Languages” ((https://nordplusonline.org/; project number NPLA-2026/10008, network support) for a period of two years from 08/2026 to 08/2028.
