The education system worldwide faces immense challenges in an increasingly complex world of AI and fast-paced change. Students must be prepared for a future defined by accelerating technological and social change.

Schools must evolve to provide inclusive, empowering and engaging learning environments that unlock each child's potential for highly changing settings. Memorable Learning Experiences (MLE) and Universal Rights can help transform classrooms into vibrant communities of lifelong learners by making those values alive and always explicit.

MLEs are learning experiences that spark curiosity, activate prior knowledge, provide challenge, increase motivation and promote deep learning. They leverage the science of accelerated change to design highly engaging lessons. The 4 Universal Rights—to be seen, heard, empowered, and part of the group—foster the psychological safety for risk-taking, connection and knowledge construction. Integrating MLE and Universal Rights into the education system involves:

• Providing opportunities for student choice and shaping lessons around their interests. This fulfills the right to be heard.
  

• Incorporating hands-on activities, simulations and experiments. This promotes empowerment through active learning.
  

• Using collaboration, small groups and partner work. This enables belonging and connection.
  

• Displaying and celebrating student work. This recognizes each child and fulfills the right to be seen.
  

• Cultivating growth mindsets by framing success as a result of effort. This develops empowerment and resilience.
  

• Ensuring lessons are relevant to students' lives and future goals. This increases engagement and motivation.
  

• Training teachers in Culturally Relevant Pedagogy to create an inclusive classroom culture.
  

• Developing ongoing, mindful approaches to adapt to rapid change and upheaval. Recognizing how turbulent transitions can divide communities (polarization) and proactively foster inclusion.

• Seeing diversity and neurodiversity as superpowers that can bring different perspectives.

Implementing MLE and universal rights greatly benefits students by promoting awareness and acceptance of differences, fostering self-compassion and empathy, and cultivating a growth mindset. By internalizing these habits of mind at a young age, students grow into more tolerant and resilient adults, even when under stress. This builds better societies that are more adaptable when exposed to new and disruptive situations, as difference is seen as a superpower and enabler rather than a blockage. This also helps individuals better manage uncertainty, think critically and creatively, communicate effectively, and approach challenges with tenacity.

When schools create an environment of shared learning and exploration, children thrive. Education transforms from rote content delivery to an insightful journey of shared development. MLE and the 4 Universal Rights unlock the unique potential of each child. Students are given the tools to practice empathy, justice, and collaboration. In this way, education lays the foundation for a society characterized by compassion, justice, and shared progress.
