Despite reports of increasing levels of climate change related distress, there remains limited evidence regarding effective interventions for individuals and communities. The current study aims to contribute to this discussion by presenting opinions from study participants who self-identified as having a professional interest in climate anxiety.…

This study takes a short trip into the near future to see what happens if Facebook bought the global education corporation Pearson. It takes a prefactual stance, meaning that it is responding to and extrapolating from an event that has not yet happened, but very probably could. The theoretical framework of this piece is futures studies,…

The multifaceted disruption of social and political processes during the most intense phases of the COVID crisis encouraged many groups and individuals to propose change and reform to education.

Bibliometric analysis has been gaining considerable interest from the scientific community in recent years. However, to the best of our…

Prior testing can facilitate subsequent learning, a phenomenon termed the forward testing effect (FTE). We examined a metacognitive account of this effect, which proposes that the FTE occurs because retrieval leads to strategy optimizations during later learning. One prediction of this account is that tests that require less retrieval effort…

Future-thinking skills are crucial competencies to prepare students to face global challenges through sustainable education. However, until now there is no comprehensive profile of this skill in the context of secondary school students. This research aims to map students' future thinking skills, starting from the development and validation of…

Purpose: This study aims to convey lessons learned from two sustainability initiatives at Norway's largest university. This contributes to knowledge-based discussions of how future, sustainable higher education institutions (HEIs) infrastructures should be envisioned and planned if the fundamental uncertainty of the future development of learning,…

This paper analyzes concepts that represent future education and are related to the educational discourse in general and to environmental education in particular. The concepts of "human agency," "child agency," "non-human," and "more-than-human" are reconsidered in view of the discourse of new materialism.…
