This keynote speech by Professor Andreas Schleicher, Director for Education and Skills at the OECD, offers a profound re-evaluation of stem education in a rapidly changing world. He challenges the traditional focus on rote memorization, emphasizing the critical need to cultivate conceptual understanding, probabilistic thinking, and a "can-do" attitude in students. You will gain actionable insights into how to bridge the "knowing-doing gap" in education, fostering not just knowledge but also the agency and optimism necessary for future generations to tackle global challenges like climate change and artificial intelligence. This talk is essential for anyone seeking to understand how to prepare students for an unpredictable future by nurturing both their cognitive and social-emotional resilience.
