The final episode of Teachers’ Voices season 3 opens with Sister Zeph, winner of the 2023 Global Teacher Prize, talking directly to teachers. “You are a future maker”, she says. These words inspired the rest of this mini-episode, which explores futures literacy. What is futures literacy? What do students gain from futures literacy? How can teachers incorporate it into their classrooms?Former teacher Michelle Blanchet, co-author of the Startup Teacher Playbook and Co-Founder of The Educators’ Lab answers these questions for Nina. Michelle is based in Geneva, Switzerland. Futures literacy is “a way to encourage young people to use their imagination and their agency to adapt, invent, recover, prepare for all the changes that we're experiencing”, Michelle explains.Teachers’ Voices will be back for season 4 later this year. Join the Teachers' Voices WhatsApp group and read the community guidelines.Guests and resourcesSister Zeph - LinkedIn, Twitter/X, Global Teacher PrizeZWEE Foundation of Sister Zeph - Facebook, InstagramMichelle Blanchet - LinkedIn, Twitter/XThe Educators’ Lab - Twitter/X, Medium, FacebookUNESCO - Futures LiteracyContactJoin us on social media: @BOLD_insights and @VoicesTeachers.Listen to all episodes of Teachers’ Voices.Subscribe to BOLD’s newsletter.Stay up to date with all the latest research on child development and learning at bold.expert.Get in touch with us: [email protected].
