At a recent All Faculty Meeting,
Andrew shared a video about the future of world, specifically looking at the
Fourth Revolution. How do we look at the future of the world and prepare our
students for it?
The faculty were asked to
consider what do we need to be doing
that we aren’t doing? The
answers given by the faculty fell into many different categories. Seventy-eight
percent of the answers fell within these these six:
- create ways to integrate the
content areas
- creating opportunities for
students to direct/personalize their own learning
- engage 21st century
skills to keep learning relevant
- use and
structure time differently
- modeling
the learning process, and our mission, values and vision
- develop
service learning experiences.
Among
many things that we might consider as we move toward our Building Futures Plan
for 2018-2021 is what we can do to address several of these ideas at once. I've
chosen three to focus on for this blog post.
Share in the comments
what might we do that would address all of these needs? What ideas do you have
for helping them become part of our learning culture here at AISC?
We will have opportunity in future blog posts to engage in conversations about other ideas that emerged from this activity.
