Methods
Framework Foresight is the primary methodology used in this project. Additionally, four 'student types' that had emerged from a previous Lumina scenario workshop were used as an organizing framework.
Key Insights
Even “baseline futures” surrounding the future of higher education will present significant challenges for established institutions. Much of the literature surrounding the future of higher education takes the viewpoint of institutions. When literature does consider the student point of view, it only considers them in the context of school. Instead, this report focuses on student life as a whole.
