“Dialogue and collaboration in future-focused education.”

Abstract / پوختە / الملخص :

We live in a world in which the future appears increasingly uncertain. Young people especially face a world in which the future of work appears to be rapidly changing as a result of new technologies such as AI, while at the same time the climate crisis brings a huge set of challenges. We should ask ourselves what are the skills that we should be teaching to this generation and how such skills might be integrated into teaching and into the curriculum. For example, it will be increasingly important to equip young people with the skills to learn to solve problems collaboratively. Additionally, at such a time it is vital to equip young people to creatively imagine possible and preferable futures and nurture an understanding that it is possible to take action today to steer a course toward preferable futures. This talk will discuss future skills, futures thinking techniques that can be taught to young people, how young people might learn to solve problems in groups (learning to learn together) and the role of teacher inquiry in identifying new ways to teach such skills.
