The Unboxing School Movement
A worldwide call for action, for those who care and are committed, to join forces in pursuit of significant changes in educational practices.
THE
MISSION
To trigger a rippling effect that will accelerate an agile transformation of educational systems towards truly meeting the needs currently re-defined by the COVID-19 crisis. To seize the opportunities provided by the upheaval of educational habits, in order to pursue educational systems that truly respond to the long-neglected learning challenges of the Digital Age. To inhibit the natural instinct of “going back”, by providing resourceful alternatives and possibilities better suited to the different educational stakeholders (students, educators, parents, decision-makers, and society in general). To target a global perspective, that not only strengthens and enriches every local activity, but that also provides the opportunity to leverage digital divides aggravated by the 2020 world crisis.
