This is not the only example of real-life learning (and exiting) experiences, in fact, there are many more- such as searching good cotton for hours in the dangerous and interesting Gamarra, as well as visiting La Fabrica and Cosas. It is incredible how being in Innovation Academy makes me better at analyzing problems, and putting aside intuitive thinking. Indeed, every day I leave class I have a deeper understanding, since my thinking is not leaned towards the concrete, but to the abstract. I think that when I analyze authentic scenarios, and my learning is problem-based, my ability to think critically and my entire mind develops.
