- tuukkah 12y agoYour best bet may be to follow Pasi Sahlberg who's an international expert in these matters and from Finland: https://twitter.com/pasi_sahlberg/status/580376929351516160 https://twitter.com/pasi_sahlberg/status/580376929351516160 Here's one presentation from the government, where they use the term "broad-based competence": http://www.oph.fi/download/151294_ops2016_curriculum_reform_in_finland.pdf http://www.oph.fi/download/151294_ops2016_curriculum_reform_... A shorter one with video and the term "transversal competences": https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=70&v=KY_LZJkEo28 https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=70&v=KY_LZJkEo28 Slides: http://www.oph.fi/download/158389_general_aspects_of_basic_education_curriculum_reform.pdf http://www.oph.fi/download/158389_general_aspects_of_basic_e... EDIT: These should be contrasted with the old curriculum which talks of "integration and cross-curricular themes", "examining phenomena from the perspectives of different fields": http://www.oph.fi/download/47675_POPS_net_new_2.pdf http://www.oph.fi/download/47675_POPS_net_new_2.pdf EDIT2: Finnish schools are obliged to introduce a period of “phenomenon-based teaching” at least once a year. These projects can last several weeks -- by 2020. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/finland-schools-subjects-are-out-and-topics-are-in-as-country-reforms-its-education-system-10123911.html http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/finland-schoo...
