Project "Choose, Do, Learn", which is coordinated by Cristiana Zambon at the Istituto comprensivo Poggiali-Spizzichino in Rome, is an educational practice consolidated over many years of experience at primary school. It is based on stimulating children’s interests and passions to promote learning.
A precise time slot is dedicated to these activities, based on the classic Genius Hour, a common practice in large companies and American schools. The Genius Hours is organized into study, research, production and sharing phases. The work is motivated by personal interest and allows even students who are not very motivated in school to develop educational objectives, skills and competences for citizens of the 3rd Millennium.
In this self-produced video, Cristiana Zambon explains the philosophy of this project that will participate in the 8th edition of the Global Junior Challenge.
