Contact: frances.hoferichter@uni-greifswald.de
This seminar brings together international expertise on current aspects and challenges of educational systems in e.g., Finland, Russia, U.S.A., Great Britain. Various international partner Universities will share their insights and develop common visions to improve the educational system on both the national and global level. We will discuss the questions of “What skills do students need in the 21st century and what does it take to support our students on their way to become responsible, creative, and courageous global players?” We will learn about “best practice” scenarios around the world and discuss how we can adopt promising structures, methods, and settings to innovative school settings.
The seminar consists of keynotes, given by international partners, and hands-on discussions or work-units that involve all participants of the seminar. In addition, participating students from the University of Greifswald will organize round tables and compose a press release at the end of the course which will include main insights gained as well as formulate demands to the Ministry of Education.
Prerequisite for participation: Good command of the English language and willingness to actively engage in the seminar
