Why StarT?<\/span><\/h2>\n

In 2016, the LUMA Centre Finland with their collaborators started a new education model called StarT. The purpose of StarT it to support the implementation of<\/span> inter-disciplinary approach <\/b>and<\/span> cross-curricular studies<\/b> in schools in accordance with the new national curriculum of Finland. The StarT model is aimed to be implemented in all learning communities from early childhood to upper secondary education.<\/span><\/p>\n

StarT is exceptional as everyone learns together as a learning community by carrying out <\/span>phenomenon-based and cross-curricular projects<\/b>. The main goal of StarT is to strengthen <\/span>the excitement and interest of children and youngsters<\/b> towards studying mathematics, natural sciences and technology. <\/span><\/p>\n

The long-term goal of StarT is to establish the collaborative and inspiring StarT model into the annual activities of schools and other learning communities. The Star teams consisting of children and youngsters from kindergartens, schools, extracurricular groups and homes share the joy of learning in the national and international StarT community, which consisted of nearly <\/span>800 learning communities from 36 different countries in 2016-2017<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n
