Global education

Societies are changing. Initially industrialised and isolated, they have become increasingly entwined and knowledge-based. Collective knowledge accumulation can turn individual ideas into action, and such Collaborative Learning Communities require a different kind of education that takes into account societal change.

This form of education is called knowledge-building pedagogy. It was first institutionalised in Catalonia and later spread to other countries in the form of the Knowledge Building International Project.

This R&D Community aims to develop and expand international-local knowledge building networks for professional teacher development.
