Classroom Connection: Future Stories with David Christian

Becca Horowitz
Becca Horowitz 1 month ago

What does it mean to teach the future?

After our event with David Christian, we’d love to hear what ideas are sticking with you. Whether you joined us live or are just thinking about these big questions, jump in:

How do you help students make sense of huge topics like evolution, interstellar travel, and the risks and rewards of an unknown future? When you explore questions about the future, do you focus more on claim testing, continuity and change over time (CCOT), or another historical thinking skill?

Share a question, strategy, or classroom connection that helps students think big without losing sight of the human story.

And if you're looking for ways to foster future thinking, try our Lesson Plan: Future Complexity and Unknowns podcast Episode 9: The Future.

    I am a ginormous fan of the Origins podcasts. I have even listened to them while running in the morning.  There are no others running along my path, so no one hears me say "What?  That is crazy?"  LOL  For me, it is using CCOT and looking for patterns as a way to make predictions.
