Imagine you have a small child......


Question 1
What will the world be like twenty or so years from
now when your child has left school and out in the
world?
(write your thoughts in a silent reflection for 5 minutes)


Question 2
What skills will your child need to be successful in
the world you have imagined twenty years from
now?
(Discuss and note in pairs)


Question 3
What were the conditions that made your high-
performance learning experiences so powerful?
(write your thoughts in a silent reflection for 5 minutes)


Question 4
What would learning be like if it were designed
around your answers to the first three questions?
(discuss as a table and share top 5 with everyone)
