Finnish Lessons

042812_1130_Speakersbio1

 Nordic Horizons had a meeting in the Scottish Parliament on the subject of Finnish education with a couple of distinguished speakers on the subject. Detailed notes of the speakers;  Pasi Sahlberg and Donald Christie are available on the website.   It was excellent and everyone commented it was inspiring, interesting and challenging. The plan was to record the meeting for your listening pleasure. Sadly, there was a technical problem. So, we did the next best thing and devoted this week's Lesley Riddoch Podcast to a report on the meeting. Photos of the meeting are posted on the Nordic Horizons Facebook page - do join. 

Pasi Sahlberg has kindly let us have a copy of his slides from his presentation. It's a big file ( 3+ mb ) and you can download it here. Download Pasi Sahlberg Presentation in the Scotland Parliament 2012
