Case 1: Networking experiences• How can networking support teachers in adopting 21st century competence teaching
strategies?
• Data gathering was conducted within the Innokas Network schools
• Surveys during years 2013-2015
• Framework for networking and for teachers’ professional development are based on
• Innovative School Model(Korhonen, Lavonen, Kukkonen, Sormunen & Juuti 2014)
• Diffusion and adoption of educational innovations(Rogers 2003)
• ‘Constructivist model’ for teachers’ professional development (Borg, 2011; Lavonen, Juuti, Aksela, & Meisalo, 2006; Juuti, Lavonen, Aksela, & Meisalo, 2009)

Innovation Education
Lego robot kits are brilliant as teaching tools in all grades in primary school [grades 1-9] and in the lower secondary school [grades 10-13]. With the kits we can practice programming through playful learning. At the same time we work in a team together and learn about technology. Students are interested in programming when they can actually build something that responds to their programming. They see what happens as a result of their programming and how the result changes with changes in programming.

Operational Innovations
We have activity in the classrooms on all grades (on upper grades [6-9] as part of each subject), as a voluntary activity, as extra work, in projects, in school festivities and in clubs after school and during breaks [Finnish school days have 15 min breaks every hour].
In our school the focus is in our technology-oriented class. The teacher of that class is allocated extra hours that have enabled practically all lower grades [1-6] to get to know technology in multiple ways

Peer-to-peer-learning and teamwork
During the Robot Week, grade 6 students acted as assistant teachers for the whole school. All teachers and students got to work with Lego [robot kits] on four stations for a whole day.
We have run a [robotics] club for grades 4-6 every Thursday between 2 pm and 3:30 pm for the whole school year. In addition, the fifth-grader robotics club members have run a “siesta-club” [break club] for all students on grades 1-2.

PartnershipsWe participated in the regional robotics event in Kontiolahti [in Eastern Finland] in December 2013 and in the Finnish [RoboCup Junior] nationals in Oulu [in Northern Finland] in May. Clubs and the competition trip were organized by parents.
In our school, we ran during the Robot Week an introductory workshop on programming and artificial intelligence for the students of the school and the daycare center/kindergarten [some of Finnish school buildings are integrated with a daycare center for 5-6 year old children]. The workshop was participated by a total of 300 people, including members of the local press. I have also run an introduction on Innokas [network] and robotics programming for the other teachers in our school.

MotivationCollaboration with other schools is surely motivating students and at least my own students got even deeper into to the initiative when they saw what other schools had done and started immediately brainstorming on their own robots.
Thank You! We’ve received lots of thanks from parents and students. I hope we can continue the [network] activity and that we can offer students these skills of the future.

Coordination
A very good initiative, let’s arrange a couple of days of initiation training again in the fall to get new teachers on board. The role of the [area] coordinator school is important. The major event in the spring was good and you provided the funds that made it possible for us to join. We will absolutely continue to be part of the network.
