For generations\, learning was built on the accumulation of knowledge. Today\, with AI able to generate unlimited content in seconds\, the question is no longer how much do you know — it is how do you know what to trust. Are our schools preparing children for the world that actually exists? \n\n\n\nProfessor Reimers will facilitate a iscussion across three dinner tables\, drawing on his decades of research in global education reform\, 21st century competencies\, and the future of learning — exploring what it means to teach discernment and intellectual resilience in an era of information overload\, and why education policy deserves far more urgency in the public debate than it is currently receiving. \n\n\n\nLimited to 30 guests. We welcome school leaders\, educators\, parents\, and Harvard alumni who share a stake in getting education right for the next generation.Priority will be given to Harvard alumni.  \n\n\n\nAbout Professor Reimers\n\n\n\nFernando Reimers is the Ford Foundation Professor of the Practice of International Education and Director of the Global Education Innovation Initiative at Harvard University.
