Experiment overview

A lecture on the future of education that uniquely incorporated children as active participants rather than merely subjects of discussion.

 

The format created direct confrontation between educational theories and the lived experiences of young learners, challenging adults to defend educational concepts to those most affected by them.

 

Main objectives

The project addressed educational reform through:

 

Critique of the Prussian education system: examining the outdated model that continues to influence modern schooling, creating common ground between generations

 

Analysis of global educational trends: presenting diverse approaches from Finnish flexibility to Singaporean structured excellence

 

Exploration of alternative learning models: investigating how non-traditional and “no-education” approaches can deliver meaningful learning outcomes

 

Facilitation of intergenerational dialogue: creating space for children to directly question and challenge educational assumptions

   

Achieved results

The lecture facilitated meaningful dialogue between adults and children about educational reform.

 

The format effectively demonstrated how educational discussions change when those most affected by the system are present and empowered to contribute.

   

Main reflection

The experiment revealed that meaningful educational reform requires genuine inclusion of children’s perspectives.

 

When adults truly listened to children, and children felt empowered to question established systems, innovative ideas emerged from unexpected sources.

 

The most transformative educational concepts came from those with the freshest perspective on learning - proving that sometimes the most revolutionary thinkers are those who can barely reach the blackboard.
