Futuresight imagines a form of mobile intelligence that can project personalized, context-aware future scenarios to support decision-making, self-regulation, and learning in authentic environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead of replacing reality (as in fully immersive VR), FutureSight enhances it, by overlaying predictive pathways, visualizing consequences, and acting as a cognitive partner that helps learners think ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>See more here:<\/strong><br><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.google.com\/view\/futuresight-etec523\/home\">FutureSite<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The microsite uses a scroll-based storytelling format designed specifically for mobile use, blending narrative, visuals, and research to create an easy-to-navigate forecast of where mobile intelligence could go next, and why it matters for educators and learners alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I hope you find it engaging, thought-provoking, and relevant to the conversations we\u2019ve been having in 523.
