What is Mökki?

Come and hear more about the new learning environment that will change the world. You can also come up with ideas and participate in designing content and programmes for Mökki that can help many people. Mökki has been developed to quickly take the latest knowledge and expertise to where it is needed – or better: Mökki helps create interaction between different actors in order to learn and develop something new. Mökki has been created to promote sustainable development. New technologies will also play a role in future learning environments and development.

Mökki means a variety of things. Mökki is still in its fledgling stages. Come and help it grow. It may lead you to new and incredible pathways. Come and leave your own mark on Mökki!

5G Mökki is a place to:

  • enjoy yourself and do what you want
  • drop by, experience things, find new interests
  • meet people you know and new people from your own campus, and other campuses and companies
  • learn quickly about 5G and other new technologies, and apply them immediately
  • gain insights and invent something new
  • present demos, projects and campaigns, and hold quick info sessions.

More officially 5G Mökki:

  • is a new tool for bringing and creating fast-paced information and content for universities and companies. It encourages people to develop their knowledge and expertise related to new technologies, such as 5G, AI, VR/AR, Blockchain, and helps companies and other organisations to deploy the new knowledge quickly and flexibly.
  • connects universities/universities of applied sciences, companies and other organisations more closely, in direct and immersive interaction.
  • offers companies an easy and fast way to find new technology experts and to launch development projects.

With the help of Mökki, companies and other organisations gain a competitive advantage and enhance their productivity through the latest technology. This, in turn, encourages the employment of new experts and successful career and entrepreneurship paths.

The Mökki concept is based on the work of a number of leading technology professionals and top companies and universities.

The first 5G campuses in the world are Nokia Corporation Garage, Espoo, Aalto University Design Factory, Espoo; Häme University of Applied Sciences (HAMK), Hämeenlinna; South-Eastern Finland University of Applied Sciences (Xamk), Kouvola and Mikkeli; Metropolia University of Applied Sciences, Vantaa. The Mökki network is currently expanding nationally and internationally.

Tervetuloa kehittämään tulevaisuuden koulutusta – paikkoja vielä rajatusti vapaana ensi viikon työpajoihin Otaniemessä!

Aalto Design Factory ja Tekniikan Akateemiset ovat mukana Universities of the Future (UoF) nimisessä EU-projektissa, joka keskittyy erityisesti neljännen teollisen vallankumouksen tuomiin haasteisiin (digitalisaatio, robotisaatio, työn murros, AI, yms) ja miten tulevaisuuden asiantuntijoita tulisi valmentaa töihin, joita emme vielä osaa edes kuvitella. Hankkeessa tutkitaan ja kehitetään yhdessä toimintaa, ja ohjeistuksia yliopistoille, yrityksille ja julkiselle sektorille, jotta he voisivat valmistautua 4. Teolliseen vallankumoukseen mukana tuomaan muutokseen paremmin.

UoF järjestää huhtikuun alussa neljä työpajaa Otaniemessä. Jokaisessa työpajassa suunnitellaan koulutuskokonaisuus ryhmissä, keskittyen päivän teemaan. Teemat valittiin projektin viime vuonna tehtyjen raporttien pohjalta. Raportit löytyvät täältä. Koulutuskokonaisuuksia lähdetään puhtaalta pöydältä. Mitä jos ei olisi olemassa olevia koulutusjärjestelmiä rajoittamassa mahdollisuuksiamme? Paikalle kutsutaan 10 henkeä per tapahtuma, noin neljä edustamaan yrityksiä ja neljä edustamaan korkeakoulutusta ja kaksi julkista sektoria.

Työpajat tukevat projektin lopputuotteina syntyviä ohjeistuksia yrityksille, korkeakouluille ja julkiselle sektorille. Työpajojen ideat voivat myös vaikuttaa siihen, millaisia luentoja ja kursseja tulemme toteuttamaan tämän ja ensivuoden aikana.

Ajat ja teemat:
• 1.4, 16-18, Lifelong learning
• 2.4, 16-18, Diversity in tech
• 3.4, 15-17, Cross-sectoral collaboration
• 5.4 14-16,  Balancing STEM and soft skills

Kiinnostuneet ovat lämpimästi tervetulleita osallistumaan työpajoihin. Voitte vapaasti valita päivän joko oman kalenterin tai aiheen mukaan ja ilmoittautua Irena Bakic:lle osoitteeseen irena.bakic@aalto.fi
