Join StarT in the School Year 2017-2018 – Support for Interdisciplinary Project-based Learning

LUMA Centre Finland together with its cooperation partners is inviting all schools, kindergartens and extracurricular activity groups from all around the world to join the StarT learning community for the school year 2017–2018. (In the school year 2016–2017 more than 800 learning communities from 36 countries around the world participated in StarT.)

With support from StarT, the learning communities share ideas and best practices about carrying out interdisciplinary, phenomenon-based, student centred, and collaborative project-based learning.

StarT encourages children and youngsters to carry out project-based learning by giving visibility for their projects and awarding the best project-teams and their supervisors as well as the best practices.

Join our international StarT family today to share and learn through project-based learning!
