OSOS Summer School 2020
Marathon, Greece, 5-10 July
Join us this summer in Attica, Greece, to bring and sustain openness in your school
Are you a school head, a teacher, a policy maker, a researcher in education seeking to bring innovation to schools? Do you want to see schools opening-up to local communities and become inspiring knowledge hubs? The Open Schools for Open Societies Summer School aims to offer a high-impact and transformative experience, both in personal and organizational levels, through a series of inimitable workshops, best practices and challenges.
The OSOS Summer School aims to familiarise participants with the OSOS approach that provides a powerful framework for school heads and teachers to engage, discuss and explore: how schools need to evolve, transform and reinvent; how schools facilitate open, more effective and efficient co-design, co-creation, and use of educational tools and services for personalized science learning and teaching; how schools can become innovation incubators and accelerators. The main aim of the OSOS approach is to describe and implement at scale a process that facilitates the transformation of schools to innovative ecosystems, acting as shared sites of science learning for which leaders, teachers, students and the local community share responsibility, over which they share authority, and from which they all benefit through the increase of their communities’ science capital and the development of responsible citizenship.
Furthermore, the OSOS Summer School 2020 has been designed to promote the use of self-reflection tools as a vehicle to support innovation and systemic change in schools. It proposes an innovation support framework and a roadmap to schools seeking to introduce a change culture that ensures a meaningful uptake of sustainable innovation, with an emphasis on achieving improved learning outcomes as set by the Europe 2020 strategy.
Join the OSOS Summer School 2020 and set the path for your school to achieve the higher levels of openness through innovation and systemic change by acting as innovation centres in your communities.
