Can you teach the future and be optimistic?

Jason Manning
Jason Manning over 8 years ago

Can you teach the future and be optimistic? That is what I am going to focus on as I start the LBH project this year. In the past my students talk about global warming, an asteroid hitting the earth, or food shortages in a rising global population. All of these issues are important but I want to create a feeling of optimism as I stress to the kids that they can help solve the world's issue. Any suggestions for how to go about this monumental task?

    Yes! I also agree with Chris. I often ask my students  “How can we be agents of change?” 

    Also - I am on day 3 of starting our LBHP projects tomorrow. Totally taking your idea here to incorporate the future into the presentation. Great way to leave things off !
