UNOi, based in Mexico, keeps it’s curriculum relevant with real-world content inspired by current affairs that could have a resounding impact on society. Unique learning experiences enable students to explore and discover their own knowledge. The model has been adopted by over 400 schools reaching 115,000 students and 12,000 teachers. Karime Pulido Ramzahuer, the Director of Pedagogical Development at UNOi, says their model seeks to “modify pedagogical practices in order to focus the learning experience to what students need.”
The UNOi learning model was created as an alternative to Mexico’s traditional education system that was not generating results. The mission was to make schools “meaningful and purposeful environments” and place the student at the center responsible for their learning. UNOi’s maker-culture approach also focuses on developing students’ emotional intelligence. “The goal is to develop better human beings and not only better students.” says Ramzahuer.
