Inhaltsangabe

To teach for innovation is a key ambition of current reforms in higher education and professional training. It represents an ambition to reorganise education and teaching in order to prepare us for an uncertain future. But how, this book asks, can we prepare for the unknown?Teaching for Innovation takes the reader through the variety of approaches to innovation in higher education and shows how different pedagogical and didactic principles come to define different visions of the future. Petersenshows us how different pedagogical choices have become powerful tools that &;secretly&; define and prescribe future social, political and economic needs. In the final part of the book, she presents three ways in which teachers and managers can work with innovation in their daily teaching. In preparing students for a world of uncertainty, Petersen argues that we should engage the student&;s imagination by encouraging them to &;visit&; different realities, to acknowledge pluralism, and to engage critically with preferable futures.
