Emerging Pathways in Education
Roblox and Minecraft are always options
But maybe your educational courses and classes deserve virtual environments, that are actually designed for optimal, adaptive learning and safe online experiences without bullies or risk of seeing illegal content.
Some of your students will love the creative role of building your own virtual learning habitats. But who can guide and support them?
Perhaps that could be YOU?
Who should train our Educational AI algorithms?
The tech world is pushing exciting and very powerful AI into the hands of your teachers and students. But were these algorithms ever trained by professional educators, who understand pedagogy and learning methodologies, let alone the ethical guardrails your school community expect to always be present?
Your school should have in-house competencies on AI algorithm training -and perhaps YOU could be the next expert on training AI for educational purposes in your city?
Building the online cultures we desire
Am I the only one who finds the largest social media platforms to be magnets for cyberbullying, spam, scams and shitstorms against innocent questions?
As our daily lives involve more and more online collaboration and communication, we must build the online cultures we desire, starting YESTERDAY!
Whatever your title may be, YOU could be the leaders or specialist, who helps the rest of us to grow healthy behaviours in our digital worlds.
AI in Education
One of the new PATHWAYS for Educators is to specialize in the use of AI in Education. When you choose this New Pathways for Educators -Learning Pod, you will also have access to our AI in Education Learning Pod.
Trend Cards
Changes in your profession -and new professional pathways- are driven by strong trends in society. We explore the most important ones using Trend Cards.
Building on What You Know
Our collective knowledge and intelligence is a great place to begin at our sessions. Bring your use cases and we will too!
Virtual Collaboration
The best online collaboration tools are very powerfull. We of course leverage the best ones in our sessions.
Exponential vs Linear
To develop our sense and understanding of the pace of technological evolution, we practice exponential thinking. It's how we calibrate to work with the future.
Ideation Made Safe
We offer a safe, fun environment for exploring new ideas. You can always bring forward your questions or ideas without fearing the reaction of peers.
Team Workshops
You are invited to bring your team. But you will always be part of a team when you join our workshops -even when you join alone.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to be a member of Educatefor.Life to join these activities?
Yes, a personal membership is always required. But the good news is, it is free to be a Pathways Explorer member. If you are a trained Educator (or a student aiming to play a role in Education), you can join the NEW PATHWAYS for EDUCATORS Learning Pod for free. We just need your registration to get your consent to receive our emails and other communication related to the events you want to participate in.
Please do notice, though, that some events and programs require a paid membership or an engagement letter between your school/institution and Educatefor.Life. The event description will have information about the requirements to participate.
Can I join as an individual or do I need to bring a team?
Unless an event/program description specifically specify that it is for teams only, then you can always join as an individual!
I am new to technology, can I still benefit from these programs?
With the invitation to each session, you also receive material (videos, electronic documents or similar) with an introduction to the topics we will explore in the event you are signing up for. This helps you get up to speed, if you prepare yourself before we start.
But never be afraid to learn something new.
Is this program available in languages other than English?
We are planning to offer all programs in other languages than English too, so make sure to let us know which language that would be right for you and your colleagues. Click the live chat below to engage in a conversation.
