The term ‘education engineers’, suggested by the organizers for joint
discussion, implies an emerging profile of professionals who successfully
develop, implement, and adjust educational practices; and by doing so,
aiming to supplement – or to be an alternative to – traditional tertiary
education, and to satisfy perceived real world needs.

With the focus on presence-based youth and adult education practices, the
event organised by GameChangers and Pixelache will gather 25
representatives of pioneering education projects from Europe, Russia and
United States (See below synopsis of all participants).The unconference
will take place at two culturally different districts – Otaniemi in Espoo,
and Suvilahti in Helsinki. The majority of the event is to be held as an
internal discussion by the invited group of participants, although
documentations will be gathered for a wider audience. Topics for discussion
include: Visions & missions, Formats & tools, Methodologies, Changing
roles, Funding & organisation/business models, Outreach,
Admission/participation & alumni, Campuses or sites of learning,
Collaboration & learning models.
