Quality of education

Quality of education – what is it? How is it measured? Who says what’s good quality, and what’s bad?

This is the first day of my blogging life. Now, in the beginning, I have a plan to write about the quality of education, more or less. Keeping focused should be fairly simple because (almost) everything we do here at SAMK has something to do with the quality of education. Good or bad. It’s all about daily life things – it’s about teaching, counselling, questioning, answering, talking, listening, encountering… It’s about comprehensive quality. And this all has quite a lot to do with “comprehensive brand” which I very much believe in. That means, roughly, that everything we do (and even what we choose not to do) constructs us and our image and reputation. Good and bad. And in-between.

Let’s see what happens. Let’s see what we learn. That’s what I’m going to write about. More or less. I’m going to write about daily life matters, “big” and “small”. From them we usually learn something. And let’s see what I’ll learn. This is a new thing for me, and I’m curious.

BTW, this blog will be bilingual: some days in English, others in Finnish. Kanske även på svenska.
