School revolution in Mainz: tablets instead of blackboards in the Mombach high school!

In Mainz-Mombach, real change is taking place in the education sector. Learning is being rethought here: traditional forms of teaching have been abandoned at an innovative high school that was set up as part of the “School of the Future” initiative. Instead of rigid 45-minute units and classic classrooms, modern learning paths are used. Each child has their own workstation and access to digital learning content - so individual learning is very important.

The system allows students to decide for themselves which tasks they work on and when. Teaching content is digitally prepared and networked in a variety of ways. A clear example is the topic “Farm”, which combines the subjects of geography, English, German and ethics. The learning location is often flexible: large common rooms offer space for partner work and encourage exchange among each other.

A new way of learning

Mentoring discussions between teachers and students take place week after week. These conversations are an integral part of everyday school life in order to discuss the students' learning progress and personal concerns. The teachers take the time to respond individually to each child. This creates a trusting atmosphere that makes it easier for students to openly discuss difficulties and seek help. This approach not only promotes learning but also personal growth for students.

Parents are also encouraged to actively participate in their children's learning process. Regular discussions about school topics are intended to promote reflection, while creating a good learning atmosphere at home supports the children in being able to choose their own place of learning. Another important point is not to overvalue the grades. Instead, the focus is on the children's skills, which provides relaxation, especially during the transition to the next school level.

Anyone thinking about suitable footwear for going to school these days could take a look at new models that combine comfort and style. With the current offers, for example from Skechers, everyone can find the right slip-ons that are ideal for both school and leisure time. It is worth keeping an eye on the practical and comfortable shoes to make students' everyday lives easier. Further information can be found on Skechers.

The high school in Mainz-Mombach impressively shows what a modern educational landscape can look like. With flexibility, individuality and a supportive environment, the foundation is created for a new generation of learners. This is a good step into the future.
