my Patha new path for the educational system

Problemthe gap between what kids learn at school and its uses in real-life

{brainstorm}

Solutiona creative space for kids to develop their skills and learn about real-world

professions

my Path

We want that kids feel passionate about what they are learning and see the results of their efforts right after, while meet real professionals and have a closer contact with their aspiring careers.

✦ Education based on results: kids are designed in projects where they learn how to execute them, while learning curricular theories

✦ Mix: indoor theory classes with teachers in the morning, outdoor practice with professionals in the afternoon

Connecting the dotsinspiring middle/high-school kids to learn by practicing

Project based

✦ At MY PATH we offer real-life projects related to different careers and paths that the student can be interested about

✦ Modular: the student choose which and how many projects he wants to participate, following his own dreams about his future

✦ Adaptive: the student choose to stay in the same project level - beginning different projects - or move to a more challenging level

Project based✦ I want to make a...

✦ ARTS: short-movie, Broadway play, gallery exhibition, music album, photography session, write a book

✦ SPORTS: marathon, gym training, be a coach

✦ CARE: take care of a dolphin, start a farm, medicate for flu

✦ CONSTRUCTION & DESIGN: kart, tree-house, decorate my house, design a innovative chair, design a package for a new product, game

✦ ADMINISTRATION & LAW: marketing campaign, develop a new product, participate of a trial

Education Reversed

✦ At school the learning process occurs based on the curriculum that can or can’t be used in real-life applications in the future

✦ At MY PATH the learning process occurs following the student’s expectations, developing his own path through an adaptive and modular learning education

✦ Objective: students will have a clear image about where they are going with all that they are learning

During projects, students are exposed to different curricular and real-world subjects related to that matter

“Learning how to make a movie I became really interested in screenwriting. At myPath, I met a

professional screenwriter who is now my mentor. We are writing our first short-movie together!”
