Besides common core basics, kids should be spending the bulk of their time ages 5-22:
โข learning about things they find fascinating
โข building projects
โข testing their skills in real-life environments
They should come out at 22 with a fully functioning, real-world skillset.
Yo-yo Ma is making a pretty good case for why we need to build the #FutureofScouting on the WEF livestream. Tune in now! weforum.org/event_player/a0Pโฆ
Great thread on emerging #ed3 orgs.
There's plenty of space for existing educational organizations to transition to web3. We're doing so ourselves.
Thanks for the shout-out!
Some of the most valuable educational institutions of this era will be โed2.5โ institutions.
They may not be on-chain and they may not have a token.
Yo Yo Ma in conversation about the #futureofscouting?? Weโll be there.
โHow do artists, scientists and young people serve as scouts for society? How can their perspectives help us rebuild trust and shape a better future?โ

We're excited to announce that our program director @poietik has been named a finalist in @forefront__'s web3 creator residency!
He'll be opening the curtains on what we've been developing since the pandemic, and sharing our vision for a web3 decentralized scouting movement.
@poietik - storyteller & world builder empowering communities via technology, creativity, curiosity & imagination. Project: Future Scouts 2.0 - a decentralized, scalable model for peer-to-peer learning communities, enabled by web3/DAO tooling.

#Metacognition is a skeleton key that unlocks any and all types of skills, literacies and competencies.
Metacognitive strategies set our imaginations free of past encumbrances to embrace possible futures.

Creatively applying AI transformers is definitely an emerging 21st century skillset (and occupation)!
But as this thread points out, there are major implications on Education, as we know it.
What if we designed education around embracing these emerging creative prosthetics?
This "student essay" was written by an AI Transformer program. I gave it a prompt "The construct of learning styles is problematic because " and it generated the rest, including the headings and references. AI Transformer technology will disrupt education. Here's how. ๐งต1/

For the first time ever, scientists have grown plants in lunar soil.
This @UF and @NASASpaceSci experiment using Apollo Moon samples could shape the future of sustainable astronaut missions to deep space. Dig into the story: go.nasa.gov/38oVJU6
ALT View from above of seven small plant samples growing from small containers. The four sprouts on the left were grown in volcanic ash and appear vibrant and sturdy. The three sprouts on the right are slightly smaller and slightly duller because they were grown using the nutrient-enhanced lunar soil. All samples sit inside a clear, flat container on top of a white surface.
Imagining and envisioning our preferred futures doesn't mean disconnecting from the "now" - it's a way to expand our sense of it, and all the possibilities the present holds...๐ฎ
