Christine Renaud, Felix Rundel A linear, predictable life would
call for linear, predictable studies. Yet, in this day and age,
lives are everything but predictable. They are challenging, pushing
us to thrive for constant innovation in a world where problems and
solutions are created everyday. They call for our ability to
constantly reinvent ourselves, to be incredibly resilient, humble
and fierce. We can’t hit pause. Learning has to follow the pace: it
has to be agile, timely and individualized. In this era of
collaborative everything, the model
of one-teaches-all is rapidly being transformed into a
model of all-teach-one, with the incredible individualization
of learning it allows. While learning is changing, schools and
corporations do have a hard time to keep up with the pace. Many
educators and technology entrepreneurs are redefining classroom
standards, but few initiatives question the very dogma on which our
educational practices are built: the very concept of education
being anything else than the broadcasting of information from one
to many. The expert (ex-peer) still acts as a knowledge broadcaster
while participants are confined to the role of silent spectators.
In many cases, education is something that is being done to you and
learners’ unique questions, challenges, interests and personalities
were seen more as an annoyance than a fertile ground for learning.
We can all feel it: this model won’t last very long. So what’s
next? What if workplaces were accountable of adults blooming? What
if our communities were devoted to guiding our children in the
accomplishment of their current and far dreams? What if we used our
digital power to propel refugees with knowledge and opportunities?
What if we stopped bashing schools as they are and proposed such a
strong alternative that they would soon just become obsolete?
Through a discussion with Braindate CEO Christine Renaud, let’s
explore a world where all humans, young or old, anchored or
displaced, will be supported in becoming their greatest selves
everywhere, all the time, by all of us. Share your thoughts and
questions in advance via #NewLearning + #rp17.
