All participants add their ideas, inspired by virtual events held around the world by local organizers in each city. The city with the most ideas will receive the award for the most creative city.
Teachers will benefit from interesting discussions with other teachers about new ideas from different contexts and cultures. These reflective discussions will support individual development of teaching and learning ideas and will also benefit students
An 'international/intercultural' app to match teachers in similar subjects and institutions but from different cultures and environments. The matched teachers will be able to arrange discussions about ideas for teaching, share experiences and develop new ideas by mutual support
This idea matches teachers from different cultures to enable and support intercultural sharing and learning. This can lead to deveopments in teaching and learning as well as opportunities for greater awareness of diversity and inclusion.
A website connected to the university, but the activities and sessions are already in place in school.
We are a university and have a access to academics, lecturers and students to help bring ideas forward. We also have many business connections which we can partner up with if required.
I would lead/coordinate. My name is Karl McCormack. I am a Senior Lecturer in The Business School and a Pedagogic Innovator at Staffordshire University in the UK.
Short term: publicise the idea, get material and set up the website
Long term: build the ideas and then share nationally / globally the idea
Schools may already do this, but it would be a central hub through the university to promote community (or local councils). Cross learning of schools and parental ideas. Sharing common ideas. Building a community of practice.
Local, then UK national then global.
We are a university and have a access to academics, lecturers and students to help bring ideas forward. We also have many business connections which we can partner up with if required.
We also have the latest technology including 3d printers, CAD machines and specialist software. Faculties such as business, arts, mechanical engineering, architecture, bio science etc are able to come together to help bring an idea forward.
Only website but building cost. This would be swallowed by the University marketing budget.
