Finnish Lessons 2.0: What Can the World Learn From Education

Finnish Lessons 2.0: What Can the World Learn From Educational Change in Finland? Second Edition

Author - Pasi Sahlberg

Pasi Sahlberg has thoroughly updated his ground-breaking account of how Finland built a world-class education system during the past four decades. In this international bestseller, Sahlberg traces the evolution of Finnish education policies and highlights how they differ from the United States and much of the rest of the world.

Featuring substantial additions throughout the text, Finnish Lessons 2.0 demonstrates how systematically focusing on teacher and leader professionalism, building trust between the society and its schools, and investing in educational equity rather than competition, choice and other market-based reforms make Finnish schools an international model of success.

This second edition details the complexity of meaningful change by illustrating Finland’s educational performance in light of the most recent international assessment data, including PISA 2012, TIMSS 2011, PIAAC 2013, and TALIS 2013.

In the midst of continuous local reforms and global changes, Finnish Lessons 2.0 encourages educators, students and policymakers to look beyond their own borders as they seek successful solutions for their education systems, districts and schools.
