Cambridge Dictionary definition

Two Infants pupils watch a glass in amazement during an experiment

That wish to know, those questions you ask yourself, arise precisely when there is excitement at something new. That is the name of our educational model.

Where it comes from

The Educa Schools Management team asked how teaching and learning could adapt to the globalised, digital, fast-changing world we live in. Wonder was designed out of that reflection.

Educating the society of the future, a changing and advanced society whose members will hold jobs that do not yet exist, is impossible with an educational model rooted in the past.

Pupils in an active role.

Wonder means giving pupils an active role, so that their own curiosity, their own ability to ask themselves questions and to be excited by the answers gives them meaningful, versatile learning.

In this way it encourages skills and abilities that will be useful throughout their lives.

The tools

Wonder brings together the principles of active methodologies in education. These are some that have become established as techniques that motivate and make meaningful learning easier.

  • STEAM
  • TBL
  • PBL
  • Invisible learning
  • Collaborative learning
  • Flipped classroom
  • Gamification

More than new techniques.

Wonder goes beyond new ways of teaching and learning. It is a new educational paradigm that begins with a change of method in line with how the human brain learns.

  • Classroom resources
  • Organisation
  • Pupil assessment systems

You are the key.Tú eres la clave.
