•  2021-26 will see a brief respite, as the recently-born baby blip arrives at labour market age

•  A zero unemployment opportunity is here

WHAT IS FUTURE-FOCUSED EDUCATION?

How can schooling change to meet meet the opportunities and challenges of the

21st century?

Page 19: Future focused education - what does it look like?

WHAT IS FUTURE-FOCUSED EDUCATION?

How can we prepare students to address "future-focused" issues such as

sustainability, globalisation, citizenship, and enterprise?

TWO PERSPECTIVES OF EDUCATION…

•  How will learning occur?

•  What about the role of teachers?

•  What sorts of environments?

•  What will we learn about?

•  What will we learn with?

•  What skills/knowledge/ competencies do we need to be developing now in order to cope with what the future might hold?

If this is the kind of work environment our young people will be functioning in when they leave school, how well effectively we preparing them for this in the environments we have in our schools?

FOUR FORMS BEHIND THE ORGANISATION AND EVOLUTION OF ALL SOCIETIES - TMIN

History 7000 BC 3000 AD

David Ronfeldt TIMN (Tribal, Institutional, Market, Network)

Page 43: Future focused education - what does it look like?

•  Open •  Distributed •  Scalable •  Social •  Generative •  Networked •  Self-organised •  Adaptive •  Global

An education system that fails to emulate the characteristics of information in an era of knowledge is doomed to fail. Information today is…

EDUCATION FOR THE FUTURE…

What skills/knowledge/ competencies do we need to be developing now in order to cope with what the future might hold?

Page 46: Future focused education - what does it look like?

THE FUTURE…

•  Food supply •  Water •  Cryogenics •  Nano-technology

•  Cultural assimilation

•  Human rights

•  Poverty

•  Religious intolerance

Page 47: Future focused education - what does it look like?

FUTURE FOCUSED CONSIDERATIONS

•  Personalising learning – how can you build the school curriculum around the learner and more flexibly to meet learners’ needs?

Page 48: Future focused education - what does it look like?

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-29063614

Page 49: Future focused education - what does it look like?

FUTURE FOCUSED CONSIDERATIONS

•  Are you building an inclusive learning environment - how do you: •  enage learners, family/whānau, and communities in co-shaping education to address students’ needs, strengths, interests and aspirations?

•  provide access to anywhere, anytime learning?

•  support assessment and evaluation processes so that these are dynamic and responsive to information about students?

Page 50: Future focused education - what does it look like?
Page 51: Future focused education - what does it look like?

FUTURE FOCUSED CONSIDERATIONS

•  Are you developing a school curriculum that uses knowledge to develop learning capacity – how can you enable students to create and use new knowledge to solve problems and find solutions to challenges as they arise on a “just-in-time” basis?

Page 52: Future focused education - what does it look like?
Page 53: Future focused education - what does it look like?

FUTURE FOCUSED CONSIDERATIONS

•  Rethinking learners’ and create a “knowledge-building” learning environment where learners and teachers work together?

Page 54: Future focused education - what does it look like?

FUTURE FOCUSED CONSIDERATIONS

•  Building a culture of continuous learning for teachers and school leaders – what opportunities to participate in and build professional learning are afforded by technologies?

Page 55: Future focused education - what does it look like?

FUTURE FOCUSED CONSIDERATIONS

•  How can technologies be used to facilitate all of this?

Page 56: Future focused education - what does it look like?

Modern technologies provide students with

the potential for experiences of unprecedented breadth, depth and relevance.

.

Page 57: Future focused education - what does it look like?

We now have the conditions for

modern learners to tackle projects of

a complexity previously

unimaginable.

Page 58: Future focused education - what does it look like?

..as a result we must

rethink what we expect of our students.

We must stop

underestimating what they are now capable of;

and above all…set much

higher expectations

.
