Lien enseignement supérieur-recherche. Même si tout enseignant
du supérieur se doit d'intégrer les contenus de la recherche dans son
enseignement, il doit aller beaucoup plus loin que cette vision un peu restrictive.
La recherche est beaucoup plus riche que les contenus qu'elle produit et il est
crucial de créer des occasions d'apprendre la pensée scientifique, la rigueur
méthodologique, la systémique ou encore l'éthique de la recherche. Il est plus
important d'enseigner comment la science se construit plutôt que les savoirs
qu'elle produit. La posture d'apprenant-chercheur doit s'acquérir pendant les
études afin de promouvoir entre autres l'apprentissage tout au long de la vie. Entretien avec le Dr. Richard-Emmanuel Eastes.

Today’s guest offers us a fascinating glimpse into a near-future where careers last 100 years, and education lasts a lifetime.  Our guest makes the case that learners of the future are going to repeatedly seek out educational opportunities throughout the course of their working lives — which will no longer have a beginning, middle, and end. 

Her book focuses on the disruptive and burgeoning innovations that are laying the foundation for a new learning model that includes clear navigation, wraparound and funding supports, targeted education, and clear connections to more transparent hiring processes. 

The book examines:

• How will a dramatically extended lifespan affect our careers?
• How will more time in the workforce shape our educational demands? 
• Will a four-year degree earned at the start of a 100-year career adequately prepare us for the challenges ahead?  

We welcome the author of Long Life Learning: Preparing for Jobs that Don't Even Exist Yet, Michelle Weise, welcome to the show.
