How Do Schools Create the Future?

Based on the school projects tested out in Schools of Tomorrow during the school year 2017/18, experts from educational theory and practice Robert Behrendt, Catherine Burke, Keri Facer, Silvia Fehrmann, Luis Armando Gandin, Maj Hasager, Robert Pfützner, and Marie-Therese Rudolph discuss experimental approaches to teaching, alternative models for schools, and what can be learned from them. Two at a time the dialogue partners will discuss one of the central questions: What do students wish schools were like? What role does democracy play? How can schools encourage the ability to imagine models for the future? And what does art have to do with it? All the participants will then join in for a closing discussion.
