The HundrED Summit is very special for many reasons. Yes, it's about innovations - but it's also about the people. Talking with the wonderful Hei Schools, it soon became apparent that there was a clear and definite synergy between our organisations.

Cue a series of online conversations in January and February with Hei's Pedagogical Manager, Karoliina Nygren: "Would Tagtiv8 like to support our new school in Buenos Aries?" Of course we said, "Yes." The resources were shipped and the planning documents sent via We Transfer.

As Covid-19 started spreading, Karoliina informed us: "Things in Argentina are very fine and the school opened last week with around 15 first and second grade students. I had a short chat with the teacher last week and asked them to try out some Tagtiv8 activities soon. I try to get some nice photos and content from them and we should definitely work on a piece together for HundrED! I will also share their feedback on the product when I get some."

Then, we heard: "We needed to evacuate our Finnish teacher and the school will be closed until September. Despite all this bad luck I think the tags would be a great teaching aid for the local primary teacher. She is very open to new teaching methods and I would really like her to try out the tags when the school opens again. Since the period of teacher training was so short, our Finnish teacher onsite didn’t have the time to explore the tags with Agostina (name of the local primary teacher). Therefore I would hope we could cooperate and if you are about to host any webinars or online trainings related to your product, it would be great to introduce the tags and how to use them through that for Agostina. Of course the time difference between Europe and South America is pretty challenging but let’s try to figure something out."

Another pivot during this pandemic, but we are remain optimistic. We have learned to play the long game. Watch this space...
