A team of Houston Foresight students joined Andy to spend a Saturday working with high school students on November 21st. They participated in the Houston ISD (Independent School District) Debate Initiative program, which is coordinated by alum Mark Niles.
Andy and a student team consisted of Jason Crabtree, Maria Romero, Johann Schutte, and Will Williamson attended the event for a couple hundred high school students interested in debate.
The team kicked off the event with presentation — How Futurists Identify Emerging Issues — in which Andy talked for a bit and then the foresight students had a panel discussion sharing their experience as students in doing the actual work.
After this kickoff the Foresight students led breakout group discussion with the high school students.
- The Future of Privacy, Security, & Surveillance led by Johann and Will
- The Future of Work: How do we earn a living without jobs led by Jason and Maria
After the event Mark said that “Many people have contacted me saying they enjoyed learning from you and the students.” Andy Hines
