The post-truth world where reality becomes fungible• Virality seems privileged over quality

in the distribution of information• Truth and fact are losing currency

Scarcity of attention and abundance of information• Algorithms sort us into groups of like-minded

individuals create echo chambers that amplify our views, leave us uninformed of opposing arguments, and polarise our societies

Anticipation mobilises cognitive skills, such as analytical or critical thinking, to foresee what may be needed in the future or how actions taken today might have consequences for the future

Both reflective practice and anticipation contribute to the willingness to take responsible actions

At the hight of its strength, Japan can prepare for the future

26

Strengths

1. Education is a priority: shared commitment to education, high private

investment and high enrollments. Government has prioritized education.

2. A recognised need to go beyondtraditional concepts to develop skills for the

21st century as drivers of the future.

3. Partnership that works in deliveringholistic education for children: conscientious

teachers, engaged students, supportiveparents and community.

4. Existence of lifelong learning high performing institutions and recognition of

the need to develop lifelong learning.

Potential challenges

1. Current education funding can lead to inequities.

2. Curricular reform may not be as simple as it may seem from the ministry.

3. Holistic education may be at risk in future. Need to preserve this unique model.

4. Lifelong learning is not responding to labour market needs, leaving some behind.

• Ensuring financial support for those in need, including a reduction of the financial burden on low-income families for education in non-mandatory levels (early childhood education and care and tertiary education).

• Improving access to tertiary education and adult learning through the promotion of new programmes to foster lifelong learning in an ageing society. 29

Creating meaningful ways for community relationships

Schools

Successful schools draw on the resources and

support of their communities

Schools are vital to the social health of their local communities

Schools at the centre of their communities are often the

most successful schools.

Communities

Extracurricular activities that enrich communities in sports, social care and volunteering

Research projects offer innovative answers to the needs of local enterprises, while enhancing entrepreneurialism among students and providing real-world experiences.

Service learning

Schools engage parents and families in learning, and also draw on resources of local enterprises, community organisations, social services, and sports and cultural institutions, such as museums, theatres or libraries

Schools can become partners in serving the needs of local communities, especially in disadvantaged communities

Page 44: Preparing students for their future, not our past...2018/09/11  · 100 000 120 000 140 000 1950 1960 1970 1980 1990 2000 2010 2020 2030 2040 2050 thousands Japan’s historical population
