Samenvatting

The emergence of new technology, incorporation of AI to the work floor and
rapid pace of change and complexity around us, contribute to the need for a
more sophisticated set of skills as key elements for the 21st century and centuries
to come. This paper defends the idea that in the Imagination Age we will
require more than just the mastery of traditional foundational literacies. Educational
institutions should shift the focus towards the training of character
qualities. Meta-competencies directly linked with character will provide students
with the ability to deal with complex environments. While the importance
of character qualities in education is not new, it will become more relevant
to prepare the future generations. Educational institutions are urged to
rethink their own methods and roles to prepare students to live and collaborate
together with new forms of intelligence.
