The SOLE team.SOLE, (Self-organized learning environment) is a new way of approaching education in Argentinian schools in Buenos Aires using ICT, evolved by Alijandro Inti Bonomo, Mariano Lopata, Mabel Quiroga and Agustín Frizzera in two organizations, SOLE Argentina and DemocracyOS.
During a ‘SOLE’ session, the teacher asks a Challenging (big) Question ( the trick is to know what kinds of questions to ask) and the students self-organize themselves in groups around one computer. They use the internet to find sources, discuss them and then share their answers with the other students under the teacher´s guidance. Each group contributes a part of the picture in answering the question, so that, as one student puts it: “ The four parts make a whole. And we know everything.”
