Abstract

Rendering learners future-ready has always been one of the primary purposes of education. It makes a critical appreciation of the emerging societal scenarios a necessary prerequisite for defining essential features of the conduct of education at any age. VUCA is an acronym that describes some salient features of modern day, characterized by Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity. VUCA exerts its influence on every field of human activity, including education. VUCA may also be interpreted in terms of quantity and quality of information, which make turbulent transitions in a globalized and digitalized world. The current article explores different responses toward VUCA and identifies the best-fit response for a VUCA-driven world of information. It also investigates different aspects of intellectual formation of the new generation of learners, that shall equip them to conduct their lives and careers in a VUCA-driven world. The article concludes by sketching a blueprint for a pedagogy of the digital natives founded on their very intrinsic motivations for learning. An entrepreneurial pedagogy may help new generation learners develop an entrepreneurial mindset in them, making them future-ready.
