Opublikowano · Zaktualizowano
In June 2024, the co-founder and Managing Director of JDJ International Open Schools, Wojciech Bachalski, delivered his first commencement address to JDJ’s Poland-based graduates of the American Online High School Program.
Having personally benefited from international education, Wojciech recognizes the importance of stepping beyond traditional schooling and embracing opportunities beyond the classroom, especially as an entrepreneur. In today’s rapidly evolving world, shaped by AI and technology, uniquely human skills like emotional intelligence, critical thinking, adaptability, and intercultural communication are more crucial than ever. These abilities aren’t cultivated through rote memorization, but through flexible, personalized learning that fosters real-world experiences and lifelong growth. Modern education must leave behind the outdated Prussian model of conformity and memorization.
That’s why we’ve created, and continue to refine, an educational ecosystem designed to prepare students for the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century. As we navigate the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the future belongs to those who embrace change, stay curious, and take bold risks. So, don’t be afraid to carve your own path!
