Class Description: "Rigorous Futures" is designed both for people new to futures and for professionals looking to expand their foresight toolkits. Participants will gain a firm understanding of the basic components of foresight and learn how to combine multiple futures research tools. This will include hands-on practice with seven key methods: emerging issues scanning; timelines and the Three Horizons Framework; theories of change and stability; systems mapping; impact mapping; story narratives and archetypes; and visioning using the Verge Framework. Digital take-aways will include background readings, explanations of each method, and worksheets for the seven foresight methods covered. This fast-moving workshop will emphasize learning by collaborating and creating.
