45th annual review of Open Learning Economy started at The Economist 1972 Norman Macrae

new in 45th review: pope francis friends at vatican university www.premiosciacca.it invite 5 B Exchanges of Sustainability Goals Milennials most exciting decade - linking civil roghts and community builders of Brooklyn  (MEC/CUNT/ENS march 10 summit cominj soon) Boston (PIJ and MIT)  Berkeley (Blum/IADB coders year including give directly now in NY)  Baltimore (friends of women4empowerment and la maestra) Beijing (friends of open space) -with special thanks to deep researcj from ICCC  goal 11 young architects and the windsor castle dialogues college

2016 started the year with at least one new billion dollar regional philanthropy exploring how to invest in graduating 15000 students from underprivileged backgrounds. Our learning tour of revolutionary learning systems is offered simply as benchmarks noting our first date of awareness. We are here to learn too - new citings of the most exciting youth-jobs learning systems in world are always a joy to hear of -chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk washington dc mobile (1) 240 316 8157

Norman Macrae and I first observed students testing online learning networks 1972 at UK National Development Project in Computer Assisted Learning. Over next 12 years Norman interviewed world leaders on the coming net generation (way above zero sum economics of open learning) and on Entrepreneurial Revolution - the most exciting intergenenrational transformation required if millennials were to be sustainable. Timelines were published in 1984 in The 2025 Report. Now that we have reached the last tipping point decade, we see this as youth's most exciting decade - see how Norman's last words on Youth's most exciting time were published with Muhammad Yunus 2008

10 Suggested Benchmarks 2016

1 TheLeaningweb.net Epicentre New Zealand, Goedon Dryden. Key Age Primary - most popular outreach book bought by 10 million chinese families- first exchange with Norman Macrae of family 1984 -flips student-teacher classroom relationships round joy of searching and every child playing role of tv interviewer.

2 Harrison Owen and alumni of Open Space Technology

Youths most exciting decade  - sustainability or bust

The most collaborative network

You havent lived if you havent tried open space

So why isnt open space an experience at every school

surprising report from editors of the Good Hubs Guide - while hubs facilitate open space style meetups almost veery day, there are few if any hubs with connections with open space alumnis 30 years and 300000 social innovation inquries across 100 hundred countries

Education - Youth's Sustainability Crisis

With the human race spending over 4000 times more  (2030 versus 1946) on digital infrastructures of everyone's connected (computing networks, satellite communications) its impossible to believe that the paper-information days system

separated schools , classes , manual repetition of teacher to class though every school year can sustain millennial net generations of borderless mobile apps and access. Yet here we are in 2016 and the typical school day in any school on the planet you randomly test looks similar to 1946, A classic closed system where teacher instructs students seated at desks, regularly examined even as:

fewer and fewer subjects practical value depend on one right answer, there is more innovation at the value edge of subject capability being innovated in the next 5 years than used to be innovated in 25 years, 

most students will no longer find employers waiting to offer them jobs in exchange for the paper certificate assuming perfect theories matter moire than contextual curiosity  schooling has trapped them in (often at costs of high student debt)

Our guided learning tour economy seeks to benchmark the opposite educationa mndset - that one which hypotheses every sustainability goal will ulitmately depend on entrepreneurial revolution of education- and that bthis revoklution will be most important fior didadvantaged students - preferential option poor applies to broken community systems - (see pop health) - learning most of all

Montessori is probably the education system with the most open space style

village montessori popularised in india of the 1930s by Gandhi and  Maria became bangladeshi main rural primary system thanks to BRAC -sir fazle aded was the first wise education laureate inspiring a year if research of learning for a living

lucknow city montesorri is a world class epicentre:-founded by one family over 60 years ago- its been tracked by NM foundation since 2005

the world's largest school

the only one with unesco award for its peace curriculum

one of its first use of computers was to automate montessori dashboard empowering students to flow their own way through rhe curricula with teachers knowing what skills each student had accomplished and might need mentoring on next

lucknow is the only place we know with over 1000 teachers who really love change

'its foreign exchanges are famous - they focus on pre-teens; the reason being that what cross-cultural confidence children take into adoesence tends to stay with them for live

lucknow is large enough to stage monthly worldwide competitions

it also host adult summits such as the annual world chief justice summit - students prizes are to be te first to ask chief justices a question from the audience

one of luchnow's great innovations is that most illiterate adults can be taught to read a newspaper within 90 days support by children

former president kalams web led with a forum of all serious children questions will gain a response from Kalam- Lucknow students were far the most curious

Taddy Blecher's foundation of the virtually free university (Maharishi/Mandela Extranet) in 1999 now has 15000 alumni changing the whole education system. NM foundation gas tracked this case since 2006

amyworldfirstblecheratyazmibysamara

Partners curricula such a bransons entrepreneuship are proving popular with 7th frad teachjers and students (7th grade being modal exit from edu system by youth)

empowerment by magarishi, coding and finacial literacru cirricula are pivotal too

much of s.african youth needs apprenticeships not extended class-based education- so gogle ofers to upfrade small businesses web presence if they do a good hob taking on an apprentice

the financial literacy curriculum links into transoarent search porocesses foir small business loans

all in all the goal is to help teneagers co-create million ned jobs by 2022

survey 1of child centric education

My dream: everyone experiences Harrison Owen OpenSpace After%20the%20Rage.pdf

IF SCHOOLS were child centric they would make age relevant interventions:

if anyone is illiterate at age 6 it only takes 90 days to change that - best of all a literate kid can be main helper in 20 minute session - see sunita gandhi

finacial literacy would be practicsed from age 8 - see aflatoun ( works in 100 countries

from age 10 pre-teens would have access to pfysical and mental health studies designed peer to peer -see Lancet

no kid would leave primary school without knowing how open space meetings/teamwork is facilitated

teachers would be celebrated for clarifying which skills involve experiential learning not classroom examination - while there is some recognition that music and sports involve practice, its shocking that coding isnt valued this way ..

==============

Do you have life-changing moment to share? - what was it and what did you think or do differently after it?

example until 9/11, i assumed that (good) futures are happening somewhere in the world and would be searched out so that all could communally replicate them;  === 9/11 caused me to question whether global connectivity will give us time to find sustainable solutions for our kids- i became particulaly interested in places where good education leaps appeared but did not get app'd the world over - one example actually goes back to my favorite 1990s advances in schools that a small cliuster of new zealand schools pioneered - download it here https://oiipdf.com/download/the-learning-revolution

i welcome discussion of this book's parts at any time rsvp chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk if you have a solution every community that develops youth could be cooperational

in 1984our book with economist editors 2025report made the case for 40 year commitment to every child identifying own skils dashboard and maximising AI curation of this- we valued this as sustainability critical worldwide cooperation - we see no logic for changing this concern

== we live in an age where most up to half of knowhow of techforgood changes every 3 years - we needed mindsets for exploration not for being standard examined; a nation that makes its college students its largest debt class is likely to collapse economically socially environmentally if web3 is designed for celebrating sustainability cooperation; and if web3 is not designed for neough yout to linkin the first sustainability generation then we are all heading the way of the dodo

TECH - What is IT? and which exponential multipliers most impact human and natural futures?

AI   >. silicon chip singularity (ie when one chip > one brain in pure analytical capacity) - science fictiion no moore

who programs the ai - the race to include lost voices eg girls- the world of statistics re=-examined like never before (eg previously mass statistics very weak at coding meaining from numbers)

Biotech  >> Affective science (loveq and emotional intelligence remains human's unique edge over artificials for at least 10 more years!)

Some people say that Virtual or Augmented Reality has advanced at its best so far in last 12 months that there are hardly any qualified teachers only pioneering explorers- does this matter - well its VR which is your gateway to web3 - intead of just a mobile device you will like wear  a visual sensor system; equally others argue that you shouldnt worry about how fast you put googles on - what you should want is to take back ownbership of what you spend time creating virually- look at the small print of the big platforms you probably dont own anything without them..maybe this is a generation issue bu interstingly the met-generation can now work on chnaging anything that old systems are destroying (eg climate) ...t 

 IOT which things will now have brains and be as mobile connected as you are

Crypto - can communities celebrate financiang their own most urgent sustainability cooperations? if they dont who wil?

Cyber >> Drone - opportunities and threats of public spaces- first in spaces like the arctic circle if we dont use drones we will get no warning before the big meltdown

-the mkist memorable western campus event i attended in 2010s was tufts colllaboratory summit convened mainly by arctic circle youth under 25; 

one of the main debates how to help teachers in arctic circle schools empower their students to use virtual reality to visit other arctic circles schools communities; many of the changes and solutions are analogous; I am reminded by educators leading the compilation of virtual realty libraries of the DICE acronym - a reen might want to do something dangerous like climb everest, why not VR simulate that? there are impossible things a trainee doctor will never be able to travel inside a humans gut but that can be VR'd; there are catastropghic simulations - you would rid the world of bees just to test if donald is wrong about nature being more powerful than he is, you can simulate it; or the future of smart tourism may be curation of what a community is proudest of being visited for - this way ecotourism, cultural appreciation exchanges can be twinned to maximise celebration of each other- and by the way friends of the tourist can join in virtually- of corse this raises a metaverse question - that Hong Kong is leading the world on

being 100% public - good and bad hacs- note context matters - context 1 smart city context 2 isolated vilalge no moore context 3 make a huge land safe at borders
