Reading

From Bruce Hammond…

Supporting future-orientated learning and teaching – a New Zealand perspective.

It is widely argued that current educational systems, structures and practices are not sufficient to address and support learning needs for all students in the 21st century. Changes are needed, but what kinds of change, and for what reasons? This research project draws together findings from new data and more than 10 years of research on current practice and futures-thinking in education
