Cooperation
Jälki Otaniemen Lukio, Espoo (FIN) is a recently founded secondary school set in the ecosystem of Aalto University, one of the most innovative universities in Europe. We hope that consultations with the Finnish partner will bring inspiration and new ideas such as:
- credit system of education
- personalised teaching
- use of technology
- interdisciplinary education
Our goal is to implement project teaching of the Pronea students in cooperation with mentors, corporate experts of Innovation Hub partner companies and with Pronea Academy pedagogues. Students will be led and encouraged to discover their talents and develop their potential in a particular business, non-profit or innovation project.
Thus, the Pronea Academy student will not only gain education, but also practical work experience, the opportunity to do business, the space for creativity and the protection of his/her own patents, which remain their intellectual property.
