- To learn how it works, please click on this presentation in a flip book format The Themes:
- Learning for Sustainability
- Sustainability: A new culture and methodology with a “people & planet care” attitude (Hållbarhet: En ny kultur och metodik med ”folk och jorden i omtanke – ett nytt förhållningssätt och en ny attityd”)
- Greening education, research & entrepreneurship for sustainable development (Öppen Skola för utbildning, forskning & entreprenöriella hållbarhets rörelse).
Open Schooling / Öppen Skola som en effektiv metod för utbildning bygger upp ett samarbete mellan utbildningsinstitut och det lokala samhället, det gör Öppen Skola genom att förverkliga kunskap. Lärare eller handledare och studenter bjuder in föräldrar och andra samhällsaktörer och utvecklar tillsammans de forsknings- och innovationsprojekt som tar itu med relevanta lokala utmaningar; detta hjälper bygga ett kunskapsbaserat samhälle tillsammans och främjar också globalt medborgarskap med (som de säger ett fras) “think globally and act locally (svenskans “Tänk globalt, agera lokalt”) i olika sammanhangen.
Enligt Wikipedia: “Tänk globalt, agera lokalt” uppmanar människor att tänka på hela planetens hälsa och att vidta åtgärder i sina egna samhällen och städer. Individer, föreningar och det civila samhälle gick samman långt innan regeringar började genomdriva miljölagar för att skydda livsmiljöer och de organismer som lever i dem. Dessa insatser – kallas gräsrotsinsatser förekommer på lokal nivå och drivs främst av volontärer och hjälpare.
OPEN SCHOOLING FOR PARTICIPANTS:
- Open Schooling develops young students’ skills and competence needed for the global challenges we face in the 21st century.
- It offers innovative ways for improving learning and can play an important role in local communities.
- Actually the idea (Open Schooling) is to involve external partners or take the students with you outside the classroom.
- Open Schooling can be tailored to support you in working with the curriculum in a new way that improves student engagement and thereby initiates and deepens the participants’ or school’s relationship with the society.
- Whatever form it takes, at the heart of open schooling is a mindset and culture that is collaborative.
- Open Schooling is all about learning together in the real world.
- It’s a method where purposeful cooperation between school/educational institute and society at large is built up.
- Open Schooling engage families, the local government, municipality or other stakeholders and even inter-governmental organisations collaborate with teachers and students to address relevant local challenges, contribute to community development and thereby promote active global citizenship.
- Open Schooling gives students the opportunity to learn together in the real world and learn from people other than their school teachers.
OPEN SCHOOLING FOR EDUCATORS – CPD:
- A lack of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) opportunities is preventing teachers and educators from reaching their full potential.
- CPD – tailored to career goals and current responsibilities – is essential to a successful performance management strategy. CPD activities engage employees by honing their skills, create a more loyal and long-lasting learning workforce, and instil a desire for career development.
