ENACTING – IO5: Futures Literacy Methods

The essay focus on the results of the fifth intellectual output of the FUELDESIGN project framing Futures Literacy Methods and related methodologies. We frame this stage as the enacting stage where all the previous IOs merge and melt into one pot. The aim of this intellectual output, the Futures Literacy Methods, is to transform and convey FUEL4DESIGN outcomes into learning processes. Learning Future Literacy Methods concerns both the preparation of a complete Futurist Designer training course and the design of small Independent Learning Units to crossbreed design studios or speculative/theoretical courses. The Units are specifically created to cater to the needs of future literacy and are geared to acquire knowledge on anticipatory practice, critical future design, and future-making through the dedicated tools.
