What has been the most meaningful idea you’ve discovered or learned so far in preparation for your study abroad to Finland?
I’ve loved learning about Finland’s dedication to equity in schools, understanding the ways in which kids learn through play and exploration outside of the classroom, and exploring the influence of culture on education systems.
For me, the Finland Study Abroad is an opportunity to…
explore and engage with a culture other than my own and understand the intersectionality between education, sustainability education, and culture.
What do you want to be better at?
I want to be more intentional about taking and engaging in every opportunity to get the most out of my experiences.
How does learning about Finnish education, sustainability, and culture shape the way you view, and want to engage with, the world?
I am now making more interdisciplinary connections in the world and understanding both how action/reforms are made and how I can get involved to make change.
