Today we had a lesson with Tommi and Serkku from Kokkola, the town located in the west part of finland. They are teachers, Tommi also is a vice-principle in the primary school.
Firstly Tommy gave us presentation about The basic structure of the Finnish Education system. The main statement that was given first is 'Equality and quality for all' .
The presentation had so many good information. We have gone through the presentation very quickly. However, I have noticed next statements: great autonomy, trust, flexibility in the Education system; self-evaluation system instead of inspection.
The second presentation was given by Serkku. She said many important things. What I understood from her speech is that 'the knowledge isn't the crucial point, the most important thing is know the ways of teaching and learning students, to know how organize learning process'. You cannot tell the wind how or where to blow. Teacher's role is forming from knowing to showing how.
After these presentations they gave us a short master class with Ipads. We have learnt more about some useful applications.
Thanks a lot for Sanna, Tommi and Serkku.
