The CfWI horizon scanning team has produced a series of posters to represent the key messages from the CfWI report Big picture challenges for health and social care - implications for workforce planning, education, training and development which is due to be published shortly.
The posters focus on the five domains of Health Education England's Education Outcomes Framework
excellent education
competent and capable staff
adaptable and flexible workforce
NHS values and behaviours
widening participation
using them as a basis to put forward thought-provoking questions.
The posters are available to download below.

120 years ago the emergent field of experimental psychology became embroiled in debates as to whether plateaus in performance are real (or not) and if so whether they were due to periods in which league-stepping methods (originally defined as a hierarchy of habits that enabled experts to step leagues while novices were ``bustling over furlongs or inches'') were being acquired (or not). 20 years ago both the human-computer interaction and cognitive science communities were seized with concerns over performance plateaus (i.e., extended periods of stable suboptimal performance) from experts. I briefly review this history with the aim of drawing distinctions between performance asymptotes and performance plateaus, and argue that remediating one is the domain of design while remediating the other is the domain of training.

“Horizon-scanning: A brave new world or re-inventing wheels” By Kris Lines, Senior Lecturer & Teaching Fellow, Faculty of Business Education & Law
Session outline: This session will explore how feature technologies (MOOCs, Wearable devices, Learning Analytics etc) will impact on the current educational pedagogies, and what implications this will have for learning, teaching and assessment strategies
Ever wondered why some organisations have the ability to re-invent entire industries, time and time again?
Where does this source of continuous innovation and foresight come from?
Ever considered that these organisations have two separate innovation cycles in motion?
Good organisations are able to innovate and improve what they know. What the great organisations are able to achieve is the continuous ability to regenerate its own core strategies, based on what they don’t yet know, re-inventing entire industries along the way.

Foresight driven innovation - boosting pulp and paper with scienceFredrik Rosén
What does self-opening packaging, textile like paperboard and the world’s first lignin-based carbon fibre composite have in common? They are all demonstrators of future use of wood fibres developed by Innventia – a world leading research institute that works with innovations based on forest raw materials.
Fredrik Rosén will present Innventia’s approach to foresight driven innovation at the RISI European Conference. Highlights from the Innventia Global Outlook Reports “Packaging 2020” and “Papermaking Towards the Future” will be presented. Packaging 2020 describes seven global forces and their impact on the packaging industry and the packaging of the future. The conclusions are based on a survey carried out among consumers in the US, India and Sweden. “Papermaking Towards the Future” is based on an expert survey with 150 respondents from 21 different countries and maps the most important trends and driving forces for tomorrow’s papermaking.
Presentation made at the 4th Workshop on Strategic Crisis Management (Paris, 28-29 May 2015). For more information, visit the meeting webpage: http://www.oecd.org/gov/risk/4th-workshop-strategic-crisis-management.htm.
Cecily’s fun and inspiring programs take groups on a guided tour of the future where they find fresh answers to the age-old questions, “Who are you?” “Where are you going?” and “What’s your territory?” Whether an industry forecast, innovation challenge, leadership development, or for future-proofing a brand, Cecily is able to penetrate core issues and get to the best questions quickly. Her provocative and engaging programs offer a practical approach to connecting near-term realities with long-term objectives.
All programs are tailored to the interests and objectives of each group.
Farmers manage large areas of landscapes that are altogether designed by heterogeneous actors. Conflicts may eventually arise in complex regions like the Mediterranean where the urban and agricultural actors’ spaces for action easily overlap and concur for the use and management of soil and water. A territorial or landscape perspective is therefore required to inform the design of land management systems capable to meet the place-based development goals. A greater involvement of agronomy in the landscape arena would help to design landscape management policies that are better informed of farming systems. Our aim is to present a territorial approach that supported a prospective analysis for the design of shared land management actions using the territory game.

1 Shirin I agree, I most definitely think that the human brain is .docxNarcisaBrandenburg70
1: Shirin I agree, I most definitely think that the human brain is the greatest computer of all time, however a thought has come to mind just know. Previously working the medical field there are some peoples brains that our superior to others some who have defects, diseases if you will that prevent our brain from functioning properly. There is one area that the human brain can't compete with when it comes to modern technology and that's longevity. And that is an expiration date, we will all pass on sometime and some of us will lose our capabilities to process things like others sooner than later.
2:
Hi everyone, I am 110% percent sure that the human brain is the greatest super computer. Our brain is so complex that still to this day scientist are discovering and learning new things about it. We are able to process things at a speed most computers cannot compete with. Our learning capabilities are endless and only stop because we chose for them to. Our memory never gets filled. We can constantly reprogram our coding, for example behavioral issues can be modified if we choose to with a simple thought and will power. With our brain we have created technology as we know it today! That in itself makes us the greatest computer ever, because we are creating all the ones that our brain is competing against. We don't need keyboards or a screen we can vocalize our thought process and visualize what we want with our imagination.
3:
Honestly, I feel that anything that you put out there on the internet is up for scandle in someway. I think that if your going to join a site like that then be prepared for the outcome it may have on you. Because there are other people out there that can see your stuff too like your pictures and what you've posted in your profile as well. Like on Facebook, I make it my rule to not go by my real name and I never post anything on Facebook that is negative or that I don't want to draw a ton of attention too. I think that in a case like the Ashley Madison site being that it's a site for people whom are unhappy in there current situations and want to have extra marital affairs that they be open and honest with there loved ones so that in a situation like what just happened that this doesn't happen again. I mean there is always going to be some type of scandle when it comes to stuff like that if your someone that is in the "media" a lot then your more prone to have this type of stuff happen to you public ally then the average Joe would.

Technology has become a key aspect of our lives and a useful learning tool. This is the focus of this month’s activities, which help our students to reflect on the role technology plays in our lives and how it can help them improve their English. Our B2 First and C1 Advanced students consider the positive and negative sides of technology while they practise their listening, reading and speaking. B1 Preliminary and B2 First students will learn technology vocabulary and write a horror story. Our younger learners can have fun while they learn technology vocabulary and practise their speaking, reading and writing. Happy teaching!
As parents, it is our job to teach our kids about life. One aspect of life we need to teach and lead them in is information security. In this talk I’ll outline our family’s approach to information security and why my bio mentions teaching my children how to hack in an ethical fashion. This talk will be more than encouraging parents to get their kids to eat their digital vegetables. It will also touch on some of the vexing problems our children face today including bullying and suicide.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
