3. The root of the idea is DJI or the Dream Job Instructor
Who’s the Dream Job Instructor?
*It’s us! The instructors who will implement innovation
in the existing educational environment by merging
the educational sphere with the business sphere
EDUCATION + ENVIRONMENT
social, business & natural
*Primary schools observing, playground, sustainability
*High schools imagine, dream, research
*Universities THINK, DO, EXPRESS
4. As Dream Job Instructors:
1. Implement new courses in schools through
combining the educational and social aspects of the
students’ development
2. Bring refreshment in the in the already existing
curriculum and shift the educational paradigm
3. Allow students and pupils to express themselves
through their preferred media
4. Allow them to do research and gain experience by
being involved in a variety of social spheres or
industrial branches
5. Allow them to better understand the aspects of
different environments by direct participation
6. Support students to nurture their individual talents
5. BLOGGING
Why is blogging important?
One of the important roles of the DJI will be to
upload the students’ researches and works on a blog
or a relevant internet platform in order to construct a
quantum of knowledge and information which can be
accessible to everyone.
* This should encourage the students to continue
expressing themselves.
• To give them a sense that their efforts were not in
vain and that they are actually doing something
significant for themselves and their future.
• Their voice is heard
6. BENEFITS
1. Help students to locate their preferred field of
interest
2. Students will develop a sense of real-life work (by
being part of internships/practice* see more in
the ‘education section’
3. Future employers or companies who are to
support these practices will have the opportunity
to observe their interns/apprentices; mark their
work; provide them with training. This will result
in cutting expenses for training new staff
4. It will challenge us continually and we will learn as
much as our students
5. We will educate young people and make the world
a better place
6. Forms like CV/motivation letters will be of
secondary meaning, not primary.
7. Perfect Education towards Dream Jobs
Stage I: Implementing the new programme under the command of DJI in Primary
schools
Tag words: observing, playground and sustainability
Target group: kids enrolled in primary schools (age: 7 to 15)
Possible activities:
• Nurturing information on sustainability through REUSE/REDO classes (crafting
things out of materials for garbage)
• Going back to nature (visiting botanical gardens, zoos, museums, field trips in
small research groups – 10 kids per group max)
• ‘re-creating nature’ (planting flowers, fruits, vegetables gardening skills)
• Inclusion of playground learning systems (school hours where children from
different ages can mingle together and exchange ideas among each other, out
of the classroom
• Merging nature + technology in virtual classrooms (simulations of different
environments)
Skills gained: observation, gardening, green thinking, creativity, perception of
reality
Children are to write papers or prepare drawings reflecting their experience and
their works will be published on the relevant school blogs
8. STAGE II: Now we are one level up!
Tag words: Imagine, Dream, Research
Target group: High school students (age: 15 to 18) and they are to lead their own
education /DJIs are more like observers and instructors in this stage
Possible activities:
• “Create reality, stimulate action” concept
• Innovation Jam
• Research on preferred topics (individually); priority topics: entrepreneurship,
sustainability
• Imagine: Future & Compare-to-present
• Create and re-create (what buzzes them in reality should stimulate them to
take actions)
• Freedom of expression and value of opinion
AIM OF THE STAGE: We believe that this concept is a very positive approach to
the development of successful dreamers who will craft a HEALTHY society
9. STAGE III: University & Tasting Jobs
Tag words: THINK, DO, EXPRESS
Target group: university students (age 19- 25)
This final stage merges the educational sphere with the business/social one
Possible tasks:
• Each semester (3 years of study = 6 tasks, 4 years of study = 8 tasks) students
will be given different tasks through which they will engage in different
activities
• Choice of certain topic for research, apart from regular university classes
• Chance for students to WORK or RATHER OBSERVE the working environment in
a company related to the chosen topic of the student (results: broadening of
knowledge, development of ideas; the employees will also have the chance to
train new stuff or simply observe and collect ideas from employers
• Open space for expressing their way of perception of different working
environments (from coffee shops to corporations)
At the end of their engagements, students should submit research papers to their
DJI who will furthermore elaborate the research
10. Benefits of stage III:
• By tasting different working environments, students should profoundly
discover their own fields of interest, because as human beings we are not
always aware for our cognitive capacity and inner interests
• Students are to receive software knowledge (gain skills for different jobs
which will make them more competitive on the market).
• Students will value each job and will learn from each job.
Imagine, if you as a student had the chance to work as an editor in a publishing
house, a marketing intern in a company, a kinder-garden teacher, a salesman in
a coffee shop, a manager of a taxi driver and an assistant in Ambulance?
Interested?
We bet such scenario could make all of us more humane, apart from all the
gained experience on our pathways to our dream jobs!
To mingle is to live!
