How to talk about change

About this course

We’re going to be encouraging reflection and expressing ourselves this month by looking into our past and future selves.

We’ll work hard on expanding our vocabulary, in particular discussing the theme of change.

We’re going to watch a thought-provoking TED talk regarding the psychology of our future selves and focus on selected vocabulary that comes out of the video.

Finally we will read the optimistic article Into the Future and head on over to the forum to discuss the points raised.
