Recenzii

'The future is always uncertain, and that's a good thing. Uncertainty x Design teaches us how to meet uncertain futures with a sense of hope and possibility, and how to make them not more predictable but more productive, more exciting, more welcoming. Ron Beghetto's new book is an instant classic, a key resource for educators and anyone else interested in co-designing, from today, a brighter tomorrow.' Vlad Glaveanu, Dublin City University, Ireland
'As a former high school teacher turned researcher, I think this book is an important milestone in the application of possibility thinking to education. Beghetto does not shy away from the challenges of moving beyond a traditional transactional perspective, but the scaffolding examples of engaging uncertainty by design make concrete his proposals to better prepare our students for a future of multiple possibilities.' Wendy Ross, London Metropolitan University, UK
'Anyone looking for ways to teach students for the age of uncertainty should read this book. A remarkable discussion about why teaching should be different, with excellent examples of practical strategies.' Yong Zhao, co-author of Learning for Uncertainty: Teaching Students How to Thrive in a Rapidly Evolving World
