Re-imagining education is not enough; as I’ve said previously, it’s time to get specific. Integrating the concept of “longtermism” into curriculum mapping and design is one way to achieve this goal.

The rapidly changing world requires a different type of education that equips...

Another Sunday, and another article, conference, or workshop on re-imagining education. It’s not just tiresome, but I’m coming around to the idea that it could be hurtful rather than helpful. What part of education exactly do conference facilitators mean? The term is now widely used, yet often fails to be specific in its direction or focus; who is accountable during this process? How inclusive is it? What evidence is being...

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. As an advocate of PBL, as many of you already know, I firmly believe that this innovative approach to education is better suited to the...

Well, it’s happening. New York Public schools were first out of the gates by banning artificial intelligence in education, in the form of ChatGPT; sadly predictable, but we are where we are. It’s with mild curiosity that on reflection of almost every educationally driven conference I’ve attended in recent years, educationalists have argued for, against, and warned of the looming dangers and possibilities of artificial intelligence. Whether for or against, there...

Tattooing is the most misunderstood art form in Japan today. Looked down upon for centuries and rarely discussed in social circles, people with tattoos are outcasts in this country, banned from most public spaces such as beaches, bathhouses, and even gyms. Tattoos have an extensive history in Japan, and to truly understand the stigma behind them it is essential to be aware of their significance. The first records of tattoos...

Greetings TGS, Long time reader, first time blogger here. Some of you may have noticed that I can be a little patriotic... My friends in Abu Dhabi used to joke that New Zealand has "small country" syndrome because it is always determined to be the best.
