The Long Now of Education is not another reform initiative.
It is a movement.
By changing our long-term frame of reference, we can refocus our attention to fundamentally reimagine how we educate young people. We exist at the convergence of complex signals, all pointing toward the need for transformation beyond incremental change in education:
questions about the purpose of formalized education
declining trust in institutions
climate urgency
technological acceleration, and
demographic shifts (global and local).
The Long Now of Education spans a 10,000-year arc to help us explore and develop learning that is worthy of human potential.
No one owns the future. The future is plural. It always has been.
