To underline the first anniversary of the Quebec-Finland Pedagogical Expedition and to allow you to dream a little, in an atmosphere proper to the holiday season that is finally coming, our collaborator Marc-André Girard pours in lightness and storytelling by telling us about his two trips to Finland, during which he visited several schools. Here is a short geographical, historical and, of course, pedagogical account.

The second part will be available soon and, for the occasion, Marc-André will be accompanied by Marie-Andrée Croteau, who also participated in the expedition. They will recall the highlights of the two weeks spent in Finnish schools and universities in December 2021.
