Listen now
Description
Mia Eskelund (@miaeskelund on Twitter) is the co-founder and CEO of SkySchool. They have offered a unique model of blended learning to make secondary education available to refugees online.
In this interview, we speak about Mia's experience of starting this educational social enterprise, about advice for others who want to get going, and about their educational model that emphasizes lifeworthy learning. If you want to read a mini-summary of that concept as it applies to teaching in schools, have a look here.
If you have any comments or questions, I'd be happy to hear from you. Email me at [email protected]
