<p><br/>Bringing to Israel the model of <a href="http://www.hightechhigh.org/" target="_blank">http://www.hightechhigh.org/</a>raises interesting questions.</p>
<p>One of them is the principal - can a model developed in one country fit the culture and mentality of another? That's a question that was raised about education everywhere looking up to the Finland model.</p>
<p>The other question is if adjustments are made - how are they made without cancelling out the core of the innovation project?</p>
<p>And the last and certainly not least is about this specific project, which is based on Portfolio - when changing the learning model, we must also change the assessment model. The whole system of grades and tests needs to change. Who needs to lead this? I assume universities. But are they equipped to do it?</p>
