"If you don't think about the future, you cannot have one."
~John Galsworthy
Our BIG Question:
How can school communities understand and shape the future more effectively for the children they serve?

Reading "One Foot in the Future" will:
Help you understand more clearly the current challenges to education and schooling
Clarify a path forward to creating an aspirational future for your schools
Introduce you to "Design Fiction" as a tool for interrogating the future
Invite you to become part of a "Schoolpunk" movement to connect to other futures-oriented educators and communities
Help you develop a lens of "regenerative design" through which you can create a more compelling and relevant mission and vision for the moment we all find ourselves in.
