New Forum Discussion opened!
As part of the theme for September, 'Back to School', we would like to start a new conversation in our online forum about the different platforms and places we have to develop ourselves, gain some skills or just learn more about any topic of interest. Have you recently discovered any interesting courses to attend ? Do you have a particular way you like to learn new things by yourself? Do you know any websites that can help you to improve different skills?
You can share your tips in the online forum and maybe find some new ideas from others. If you are not registered for the online forum yet, you can do it in one minute, it is pretty easy! Check this guide here.
We also want to share a couple of interesting videos to think about education, not only in schools but also adult learning, and ways to improve it. We have found this TED talk run by Bill Gates, founder of Microsoft, very interesting to start our discussion. Do teachers have enough feedback and a guidance to improve themselves professionally and so offer better learning? You will find another TED talk on the forum where a 13-years-old boy admitted that after leaving the traditional school he is happier and healthier.
