Building a Groundbreaking PBL School in Kazakhstan

Watch how a passionate cohort of educators are creating a groundbreaking school for students in Kazakhstan. While this country has struggled to achieve meaningful education reform for the last 29 years, High Tech Academy is gaining national attention for its innovative education. In their work with Korda Institute, this school is developing teachers who can collaborate generatively and design community-based projects for students to learn 21st Century skills.

“We needed a very different setup to help our local teachers create PBL curriculum and teach it efficiently. We’ve already seen a huge difference in student engagement and the quality of student work.”
