Over a century ago, the great educationalist John Dewey remarked, "If we teach today's students as we taught yesterday's, we rob them of tomorrow." This insight is more relevant than ever before. As we brace for a perfect storm of technological and social change, the need for educational transformation has never been greater. In this landmark book, 6-time bestselling author and trends forecaster Michael McQueen explores: • The 10 megatrends that will dominate the coming decades • 4 'capability gaps' in today's students that may leave them ill-equipped for what lies ahead • The key paradigm shifts educators will need to make to remain relevant in turbulent times • A range of proven strategies for making innovation and agility part of the DNA in education The time is now to ensure our educational practices are fit for the future - and that our students are too.
