Leaving the 100 Year EdTech Project with renewed conviction: the arc of truth self-corrects when curiosity is a human right.
Curiosity, framed not as privilege but as a fundamental right, is what sustains progress, empathy, and collective intelligence. When protected and practiced, it becomes the ethical engine of both learning and justice.
Reflections on what this means for education:
- Teach more philosophy — Eastern, Western, and Indigenous worldviews — to widen our moral and intellectual imagination.
- Ask more “what if?” questions and remain open to perspectives that challenge our own.
- Build learning environments where questions are valued as deeply as answers.
Truth, like learning, is resilient. It bends, recalibrates, and evolves through dialogue, doubt, and discovery.
