Maybe we are pushing future people to solve present problems

If we want to understand the three dimensions of time.

Is this the future

that we want for

education?

3th thought 

We do not understand future. 

We are focused on answering present problems

that we forget to look to the future that we are creating. 

3rd thought 

We do not understand future. 

We need to review the purpose on education 

Actual purpose is to find a job

3th thought 

We do not understand future. 

We need to review the purpose on education 

But, real purpose is giving the students the freedom to choose

Toughts

#1 - We need to change education orientation (students)

#2 - There are some critical skills to learn (increase humanity)

#3 - We do not understand the future (freedom to choose)

Thanks for the attention
