We've finished our video about Progress and students have been tasked with creating a project that demonstrates and thoughtful, complex, and thorough understanding of the prompt we have been discussing:
What should be the purpose of innovation and progress? Support your response
More details will follow about the project, but to start students have been asked to have a short conversation with someone they respect/trust about the topic to gather another perspective.
Some questions to think about:
- What are the positives of progress/innovation? Can you think of examples?
- What are some negatives progress/innovation? Can you think of examples?
- What is good progress? What is bad progress? Is that the same for everyone?
- Who should benefit from progress? Who gets to decide what is good or bad progress?
- What are the dangers of letting progress/innovation go without any rules?
- What are the dangers of putting rules around progress/innovation?
- Is progress inevitable? Can we stop progress from happening? Can we shape how it grows?
- Do you have any thoughts about solutions to some of the challenges that progress poses?
