In 2030 the world economy is showing steady growth, following a period of sluggish productivity in the previous ten years. Demographic trends in developed economies have dampened labor supply, however new cohorts of more educated workers from developing countries have now entered the global...
The future is shaping up to look radically different from today. As educators work to equip students with the skills and mindsets they’ll need to navigate massive change and prepare for a new
future, the educational experts we interviewed discussed how and why they’re rethinking the role of Education.

Launched officially in January 2020, the Education 4.0 Framework proposes eight transformations within learning content and delivery mechanisms in primary and secondary education systems to better prepare the next generation of talent for the future of work and the future of societies. The Framework, codified in Schools of the Future: Defining New Models of Education for the Fourth Industrial Revolution, also showcases examples of schools, school systems and education programmes that are pioneering the way toward Education 4.0 skills and learning experiences. Over the first half of 2020, the workstream developed the Closing the Education Gap playbook—a guide for governments and businesses to set up country-level public-private collaborations to implement the Education 4.0 framework via four key system interventions: teacher empowerment, new skills measurement mechanisms, new education standards, and mainstreaming technology-enhanced education. The workstream is currently exploring the full integration of this work into the Reskilling Revolution’s Country Accelerators. As of August 2020, using a data-driven approach, a list of 15 potential target countries was selected for the implementation of a future Closing the Education Gap country accelerator model. A high-level “Education 4.0 Coalition”—a community of champions in primary and secondary education that includes heads of international organizations, EdTech leaders, experts, education finance leaders and policymakers—was convened in July 2020. The Community strongly supported the implementation of country-level Closing the Education Gap Accelerators. There was also consensus for the community to be convened on a regular basis to align on the post-COVID-19 recovery in education.

Initiated by UNESCO, the International Commission on the Futures of Education has prepared a new report on how education can best shape the future of humanity and the planet. In this video, members of the Commission and its chair explain the main recommendations and defining features of their report, Reimagining our futures together: A new social contract for education.
The report is part of UNESCO’s Futures of Education initiative which aims to rethink education and shape the future. The initiative is catalyzing a global debate on how knowledge, education and learning need to be reimagined in a world of increasing complexity, uncertainty, and precarity.

Teaching in the 21st century involves trying new ways to engage students, but also a willingness to change innovative practices that didn’t pan out
In a recent ASU+GSV session, five college presidents gave their views of what’s next for higher education.
13 Standards For A Near-Future School by Terry Heick Today, an “unconnected classroom”—that is, one without social components, digital media output, authentic and highly visible school-to-school and school-to-community functions, and personal learning for each student through mobile and adaptive technology for each student—is seen as appropiately cautious–which is why some teachers sometimes seem against technology …
The future of work is unfolding before us. Digitalization, distant work, employee empowerment and labor diversity are high and the market is thriving. Similarly, higher education can also be undergoing a contemporary renovation as more online classes, virtual research groups, and electronic learning management systems are incorporated into instructional design. Both industries are on a […]

Five ed-tech company founders discussed how AI will likely change what and how students will learn in school.
Traditionally, the year 2020 has held great allure for future thinkers. One hundred years ago, at the turn of the 20th century,
the 21st century and the symmetrical date of 2020 in particular, inspired many dramatic predictions – from flying cars to living on
distant planets (though still apparently living in traditional nuclear families).
In real life, as we now know, the year 2020 was shocking for a completely different reason: the global COVID-19 pandemic and the accompanying economic, physical and social disruption. It was a painful and-all-too real reminder that comfortable assumptions about the future can change in an instant. In fact, there are always multiple versions of the future – some are assumptions, others hopes and fears. To prepare, we must consider not only the changes that appear most probable, but
also the ones that we are not expecting.
This paper argues that futures thinking is an essential component to leading education systems in increasingly uncertain times. Building on the Four OECD Scenarios for Schooling (OECD, 2020), which I wrote with my co-author Marc Fuster, it connects foresight and futures thinking to work on complexity and systems-thinking in education. It argues that we need to build long-term strategic thinking in education, and reinforce futures thinking to help identify potential opportunities and challenges and stress-test against unexpected shocks. Using the ideas generated in active discussion with a broad set of stakeholders, it can help us to better prepare and act now.

Spread the loveArtificial intelligence tech brings a lot of benefits to different fields, including education. Many researchers claim that artificial intelligence can lead to positive student outcomes in education. Current innovations allow developers to train a computer to do complicated tasks. This can help to improve the teaching and learning processes; however, it’s not intended to replace the teacher or professor. Artificial intelligence provides some surprising benefits for learners and educators. In this brief blog, we’ll discuss the benefits of artificial intelligence for educators and learners. Benefits of artificial intelligence for learners: Self-paced learning opportunities. Youngsters spend a lot of […]
