Learning outcomes
|
The purpose of "History of the Future" is to introduce students to "human story" in the process of evolutionary and "revolutionary" changes. In other words, who we are, from where we are coming and especially where we are heading for in the near future. Thinking about the future will be done in the form of alternative scenarios (descriptive as well as normative scenarios) and discussing there potential futures with students.
