Abstract

This graduation is about the future: a scenario-based design assignment about the future of education in Amsterdam in the year 2100. This work is part of the Complex Projects Graduation studio 2018-2019 of the TU Delft Faculty of Architecture. In 2100, automation of work will have a massive impact on our society. Labor will not be the primary occupation anymore in adulthood. Education has to adapt to prepare new generations for a life in a non-linear society that values creative and social skills above all. Moreover, education will develop to be an end goal in itself instead of a means to an end. It has become possible to learn your whole life. Education that combines the preparation for a non-linear society, and the ability to participate in lifelong learning requires a new type of school – the learning space of the 22nd century.
