How to Prepare Students for an Unknown Future with Rhys Cassidy
Unless you’re clairvoyant, it’s impossible to predict exactly what the future will look like for today’s children. We can try to predict which industries will grow and which will shrink, what sort of skills might be in demand, and what skills will become redundant.
However, at the end of the day, only time will tell.
What we can do in the meantime is equip them with the necessary skills to confidently take on the unpredicted challenges they will face.
Rhys Cassidy is an education futurist obsessed with learning and human development. He has worked in private and public education settings in Brisbane and the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia, and led media and arts education teaching associations.
Rhys is dedicated to redesigning education from first principles, focusing on design thinking, agile, complexity, and real-world learning experiences in non-formal, informal, and formal settings.
He is currently a Team Leader at Australian Industry Trade College's new campus in Brisbane city and is developing the City as a School learning ecosystem with Serj Hunt.
