David Christian | Education revolution with Big History

Описание: What kind of education will our children need to prepare them to manage a planet?

In his talk at the 2021 Frontiers Forum Speaker Series, David argues for an education revolution through teaching Big History – a wide-angle approach to history covering 4.5 billion years and multiple disciplines, illuminating the complex connections between people and the Earth’s natural processes.

David co-founded the Big History Project with Bill Gates, authored the New York Times bestseller Origin Story, and created Coursera’s 5-star Big History course.

David's talk took place on March 2, 2021, and was attended by over 3,000 representatives from science, policy and business.
