Återupplev Expedition Arcada!

31.03.2016 Education, Projects

Expedition Arcada var minst sagt en omtumlande upplevelse. Förarbetet, tiden i de franska Alperna och allt som hänt efter återkomsten till Finland har gjort avtryck i såväl dagböcker som CV:n. Det är svårt att förstå att det snart närmar sig ett år sedan 45 Arcadastudenter, expeditionsledare Patrick “Pata” Degerman och Aron Anderson besteg en 300 meter hög bergsvägg i La Grave. Nu kan du återuppleva äventyret tack vare en showcase-sida skapad…

Expedition Arcada – Film- och bokpremiär!

08.12.2015 Events, Student Life

Expedition Arcada firar idag premiären av sina två dokumentärfilmer och sin bok i form av en galakväll på Arcada. För oss som var med på expeditionen blir det roligt att få se hur våra personliga erfarenheter och insatser tar form i en dokumentärfilm. Och alla ni andra får äntligen ta del av vårt äventyr. Personligen har jag inte förut varit med om ett så omfattande projekt, inte heller något som…

Inspired

26.11.2015 Student Life

Last spring adventurers Pata Degerman, Aron Anderson, alongside with 45 Arcada students, formed Expedition Arcada and travelled to the French Alps in La Grave. Our plan was to climb a 300 meter vertical rock wall and to produce two documentaries, a book and a bunch of short clips of the whole process. And rest assured, we did. It marked an adventure in our lives that I personally will never forget….

A visit to Paulig

01.07.2015 Cooperation, Education

As the days have turned into summer it’s already been a month and a half since the expedition. The work itself, however, still continues. The book is still being written and the filmteam remains occupied with endless amounts of material. Within marketing we’ve been busy finishing up our cooperation with sponsors. Just last week we visited Paulig’s offices in Helsinki delivering a research that we did using Eyetracking. The research…

Five minutes with the kitchen team!

03.06.2015 Education, Projects

Of all the pictures that have gotten published from Expedition Arcada at least 75 percent (rough estimate) have of course been of our heroic climbers. That was unavoidable. But never forget all the teams that remained on the ground that made the climb possible, covering functions from safety and first aid to marketing, communications, web and media production. Here and now let’s focus on the one team that made sure…

Expedition Arcada – ett nytt sätt att lära

28.05.2015 Education, Projects

Ingenting är omöjligt! Det var utgångspunkten för det ambitiösa lärandeprojektet Expedition Arcada som i maj 2015 kulminerade i en klättringsexpedition i de franska Alperna. Det nyskapande projektet, som tog fasta på allas likvärdiga deltagande i samhället, engagerade 45 studenter i högskolan under ett halvt års tid. Expeditionen nådde sin höjdpunkt då äventyraren och den rullstolsburne atleten Aron Anderson tillsammans med äventyraren och expeditionsledaren Pata Degerman nådde toppen av den 300…

Pride in learning

25.05.2015 Education, Projects

During these past five months of working with Expedition Arcada, I’ve been well acquainted with the question ”What made you want to join Expedition Arcada?”. And it’s turned out to be a very important question. Namely, it works as a basis for setting goals for oneself. It’s also a difficult question, and for me personally it necessitated a whole lot of self-reflection throughout the entire project. I had to ask…

A heartfelt thank you to our sponsors!

19.05.2015 Cooperation, Projects

Expedition Arcada is back again on Finnish soil and we have brought home practical know-how and memories to last us a lifetime. Expedition leader Patrick “Pata” Degerman and his team, Aron Anderson and the 45 students from Arcada who participated gave everything to make this adventure a success and the pride we all felt when the expedition reached the top of la Via Ferrata d’Arsin in the French Alps is…

Even the author got to climb!

15.05.2015 Projects, Student Life

Writing hours and days writing in the base camp while watching the climbers one after another get ready to climb the 300 meter rock wall, made me want to make the climb too. For six days, while working on the expedition-themed book, I heard the joyful shouting when someone reached the top of the climbing route. Finally, I got my chance. And I took it. Climbing the Via Ferrata in La…

The lesson in disconnecting

14.05.2015 Student Life

Any given morning you will find me waking up, phone in hand, checking out my social media. I know, it’s not great, but it’s a common way for my generation to function. Social media opens up a possibility to connect with friends that aren’t near. Admittedly though, most of my time on social media is not spent connecting as much as it is feeding a habit. Now at camp, however,…
