Overview

This trip is aimed at countries that achieve high returns in the development of basic skills. This group consists of a mix of teachers of general subjects so that cross-fertilization can take place between the different ways of transferring knowledge. The building block self-directed learning is not only aimed at basic skills, but also at stimulating the student to take ownership and to be in charge of their own development. These themes will also be included in the trip. At certain moments the group will be split up in order to deepen their own theme, but they will also experience a number of themes in a mixed setting.
