Talk Podcast: Innopeda in the Brazilian Context

Guests: Juliana Amaral-Piispa, Business Designer and Marjo Joshi, Chief Advisor, Turku UAS
Host: Milla Järvipetäjä, Research Group Leader, Senior Lecturer, Project Manager, Turku UAS

 

Turku UAS has established co-operation with Brazilian schools and universities which are interested in Innovation Pedagogy. Turku UAS has created Innopeda® training packages for continuing education to Brazilian teacher and professor groups.

In this Innopeda podcast episode Milla Järvipetäjä and her guests discuss the cultural differences between Brazilian and Finnish pedagogical approaches. Brazilians find the student centric approach new and unusual but are very motivated in adapting the methods, processes and strategic approaches of Innopeda®.

Chief Advisor Marjo Joshi emphasizes that providing continuous education with support and guidance on the implementation of new ideas as well as quality management leads to good results.

Revising the student and teacher roles and following the Innopeda® approach holistically means that in addition to teachers’ professional development, the management, the educational processes and the learning environment are encouraged to meet the Innopeda® guidelines.

Business Designer Juliana Piispa describes the Brazilian educators very interactive and interested in “person behind” and trainers are expected to socialize with students after the training.

In this active podcast discussion Marjo Joshi, Juliana Piispa and Milla Järvipetäjä share their experiences educating Innopeda in Brazil.
