COURSE DESCRIPTION:
The Croatian educational system began a significant curriculum reform a few years ago, first in experimental schools that later served as national models for best practices. The reform aims to incorporate novel concepts (such as learning outcomes planning) and critical lifelong learning competencies (such as problem-solving, learning to learn, and coaching) into Croatian schools.
The entire procedure gave schools a significant opportunity to modify their instructional strategies, consider novel ideas, and assess them.
According to Eurostat, in 2022, the EU members that reported the lowest shares of early school leavers from education and training were Croatia (2%), Ireland, Slovenia and Greece (each 4%), Poland and Lithuania (each 5%).
