Education for the Innovative Development of a Region

Abstract

The chapter describes the possible mechanism of supporting the development of education in a region through an organization of interaction between education and businesses into a regional network of schools and their partners (representatives of science, higher education, high-tech businesses) keen on innovation as the resource of the region's development. Mechanisms for an organization of such a network are based on the model of the innovative complex in education as a mechanism to ensure innovative pedagogical community at the interregional and regional levels through an organization of interaction of scientists, teachers, administrators, and people in a business. The chapter represents five years of experience of implementation of this model in the frameworks of the ROSNANO School League, the Russian national network program, and its influence on the establishment of the regional networks.
