As part of THINK Learning Studio’s ongoing work to help educators foster creative learning mindsets in all learners — and themselves, too — we are excited to announce the launch of the TLS Foresight Lab. Why? Simply put, while we know that preparing learners for the ‘future’ guides every educator’s practice… …but rarely are educators provided relevant ‘futures thinking’ and ‘forecasting’ resources and experiences to help them do this. And even more...

Is traditional education failing our students? This is a question that I will be discussing at the Capital Club Dubai on January 30th, where I will be sharing my insights on how project-based learning (PBL) can help prepare students for the future economy and work.

Yet, the slogan belongs to one of the most understated nations in the world, a place where white buildings splashed with pastels rest beneath dramatic mountain peaks.

1. Hi Maren, can you tell us what you've been up to since graduation? After graduating from TGS, I started a bachelor's degree at the Maastricht Science Programme (MSP) in the Netherlands, where I specialized in physics and mathematics. In my free time, I got involved in the climate movement, and together with a few motivated people and some local organizations, we founded a student representation party to advocate for...

Like at many schools around the world, a sense of normalcy has returned to THINK Global School. During the 2021-22 school year, many countries opened their doors to travelers again as the risks of COVID declined, and our students returned to in-person learning following five terms of remote learning.  The 2021-22 school year culminated with Term Four in Athens, Greece, where students participated in our annual all-school symposium and graduation...
