"Education for the Future" Author: [Canada] George Couros Publisher: Machinery Industry Press

The target readers of "Education for the Future" are those who want to answer the question "What should we educators do to cultivate creative students?" In the first part, the author proposes that innovation in the field of education is not the renewal of equipment or specific methods, but a change in the way of thinking. Therefore, educators should shape an "innovative thinking mode" in schools. The second and third parts are the core content of the book, which provide educators with 9 plans to lay the foundation for innovation and release the potential for innovation, helping educators to start from specific points and build an innovative campus. The fourth part is a summary and reflection, exploring where our innovative education should go.
