As in life, there are always
surprises.

Technology makes learning
ubiquitous.
Students have laptops, iPads
and iPod touches as personal
learning tools.
Work spaces have QR-codes
providing students with a
multitude of material to support
learning.

collaborative
environment for e.g.
landscape design,
meeting virtual
customers and sales
training.
You can also take a

12. Learning is a social event. Students work and learn in
teams. Each team member
has a role; leader, info
searcher, some activist,
assessor, cross team
communicator.
Teams work on projects
together with in-house
entrepreneurs and
InnoOmnia staff.
In InnoOmnia everybody is
a learner and a teacher.
