Prototyping workshop for a learning school system

The project “My Educational Space“ of the Federal Agency for Spring Innovations (SPRIND) invited interdisciplinary teams from the fields of schools, IT, design and data management to develop possible solutions for the education system of the future in a collaborative innovation sprint. Participants in the workshop formed teams that, in various categories, jointly developed prototypes for components of a modern education system within one day. 

On the second day, the results of a jury of experts from education, administration and innovation management were presented. The best prototype determined by the jury will become part of the SPRIND's further work. All participants were able to attend the FUTUROMUNDO EDU on Friday and the FUTUROMUNDO Nightshift party on Friday evening.

The four categories of the prototype workshop are „The school as a platform ecosystem“, „Data-driven future planning“, „Rethinking school leadership“ and „Digital twin of school reality“. What they all have in common is that they focus not on pedagogical innovations, but on structural counter-proposals to the status quo of the education system shaped by the industrial age. The innovation sprint offered all participants the opportunity to learn about new methods and perspectives and to exchange ideas with people from other disciplines. All united by the will to change the system and to shape this change with concrete ideas.
