Twenty years ago with the core idea of team learning, a brand new educational
method, the Finnish originated educational method; the so-called Team Academy
was introduced. Team-entrepreneurs – previously students – operate as
independent companies in form of corporative and learn by run real-life projects.
These independent companies use also different tools as student in the traditional
educational system: use dialogue as a tool to share knowledge and think together,
as well as tradition frontal teaching is replaced by trainings and self-improvement
is done by learning by doing. Teachers are also not called anymore teachers,
instead team coaches. Being a team coach requires different competences and
mentality than teaching.
In September 2012 the system was introduced at Budapest Business School
Faculty of Finance and Accountancy. In this article as a form of case study we
share our experiences and challenges of the first semester.
