Welcome to Learning for Tomorrow. The purpose of this project is to understand how you feel when you think about the future, and what you value from education. So we created this interactive survey: a playful research project that allows you to discover your future learner persona.

The first section of the survey asks you to contemplate whether you believe the future will be better or worse than the present and whether you believe you can impact the future. The second section of the survey invites you to share what you value in education by responding to a series of values-based questions.

Completing the full survey generates a unique result based on the cross-section of chosen answers. Survey results will be used to inform the team at the UL Centre for Sustainable Futures & Innovation as they continue to work with the university community to explore the future of higher education.

Don't miss out on this opportunity to have your voice heard.
Let's imagine the future of higher education, together.

The Learning for Tomorrow interactive survey is part of a university-wide strategic foresight program, led by the University of Limerick’s Centre for Sustainable Futures & Innovation. The program aims to create a long-term vision for how UL could go beyond sustainability and become a Regenerative University by the year 2070. The Learning for Tomorrow interactive survey was created in collaboration between the University of Limerick and Studio Saol.

The data collected throughout this interactive survey will be used to inform a participatory design process that aspires to reimagine the role of higher education fifty years into the future.

This survey site has been designed using questions from sociological and psychological research to understand how individuals relate to the future, and the guiding principles that make up their personal values.

The questionnaire uses question sets inspired by:

Schwartz, S. (2004). Evaluating the structure of human values with confirmatory factor analysis. Journal of Research in Personality, 38, 230–255.

Hayward, Peter & Candy, Stuart. (2017). The Polak Game, or: Where do you stand?. Journal of Futures Studies. 22. 5-14. 10.6531/JFS.2017.22(2).A5.
