En un mundo en rápida evolución, es esencial aprender a lidiar con futuros inciertos y en constante cambio. ¡Preparemos a nuestras próximas generaciones con estas habilidades en el aula!

Nuestra aspiración es que cada estudiante esté preparado para navegar en un mundo incierto y tenga la agencia para imaginar y crear su futuro preferido.


Nuestra misión es enseñar habilidades de pensamiento futuro a estudiantes y educadores de todo el mundo e inspirarlos a influir en su futuro.

¿Por qué es importante enseñar el futuro?

Sabemos que la esperanza en el futuro es un factor de predicción principal del éxito, pero las escuelas ofrecen pocas herramientas prácticas para ayudar a los estudiantes a comprender el cambio o explorar su papel en la configuración del futuro.  

 

Creemos que los jóvenes de cualquier edad pueden aprender a pensar de manera crítica y creativa sobre el futuro y desarrollar la agencia para influir en él.  

 

La comunidad Teach the Future se dedica a llevar el pensamiento del futuro a las escuelas, los educadores y los estudiantes de todo el mundo. Al enseñar el futuro, puede preparar a los jóvenes para enfrentar la incertidumbre y ayudarlos a visualizar y crear su futuro preferido.

Teach the Future apoya la Agenda 2030 para el Desarrollo Sostenible y los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible , en particular el ODS 4: “garantizar una educación de calidad inclusiva y equitativa y promover oportunidades de aprendizaje a lo largo de toda la vida para todos”.

El plan de estudios Teach the Future (en varios formatos) se enseña en las escuelas (o después del horario escolar) de todo el mundo.

How did it all start?

Teach the Future was founded by American professor Peter Bishop. Peter led the University of Houston Master's in Foresight program for 30 years and wrote Teaching About the Future with his colleague, Andy Hines. Upon his retirement in 2013 he initiated Teach the Future because he felt that futures thinking should not only be taught at universities but made accessible from an early age on. In the past years Peter’s mission for Teach the Future has spread out over the world and is still spreading….
