This is Mark - he has helped one billion people
to become friends.
This is Steve - he has revolutionised Smartphones.
And this is Ben. He is a pupil and dreams of one day changing the world with his ideas.
But - how to start? We at Telefónica want to help Ben with his first steps
to put his digital ideas into practice. That is why we created "Think Big School".
So our goal is to create careers like the ones of Mark and Steve in Europe.
"Think Big School" is all about inspiring young people.
We want them to develop their own ideas to shape their futures.
They develop creative solutions and learn to implement digital technologies.
Part of "Think Big School" is a project day at Telefónica
on which the pupils can develop and implement their own ideas as well as teaching material for teachers.
"Think Big School" is staged at Telefónica-locations.
Our goal: to prepare students for the digital future.
On the project day - the "Think Big School Day" - Employees like Tanja volunteer to mentor the pupils.
They help Ben and his friends, to develop an idea for the project.
Tanja also explains to the pupils, which digital technologies they can use
to present and implement their ideas with.
She helps for example with programming a website, using the program "Thimble".
At the end of the project day, Tanja's team will present their idea to the other teams in Ben's class.
But even without participating at the project day, forms can profit from "Think Big School Day".
We provide teachers with teaching material,
which they can use independently from the project day.

...that you come up with to help creating your future!
