Designed for National Education Day 2025, the "Learning Futures" workshop blends participatory storytelling, futures thinking, and low‑barrier technology to move attendees from passive listeners to active designers who create micro-lessons imagining innovation in 2035; the flow alternates brief theory bursts with hands‑on co‑creation labs, uses constraints‑driven prompts (for example, teaching a complex idea in 90 seconds with a single prop) to spark lateral thinking, and captures ideas via collaborative whiteboards, QR micro‑surveys, and audio postcards. Mixed‑experience teams and “translation stations” ensure ideas travel across ages, languages, and expertise, while assessment favors a gallery walk and peer‑elected “surprise wins” to reward risk and novelty. A light longitudinal pulse gathers impact stories to iterate the format and publish a community zine, creating a sustainable feedback loop that celebrates creative thinking and continuous improvement.
