A4D Global

Today we await another 4Dframe initiative in the coming October in Korea. That is a fascinating STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) festival.

Do you want to explore more about 4Dframe ? The 19th International Mathematical Science Creativity Competition (IMSCC) is the right place. This event has been grown significantly since its inception, becoming a global platform for showcasing talent and collaboration.

This year’s theme "Pioneering Space: Go to the Moon and Mars Together" is an inspiring concept! It aligns with humanity's growing interest in space exploration and the dream of establishing a presence on other celestial bodies.

If you're thinking of participating, you could explore ideas like creating habitats for astronauts, developing renewable energy systems for space, or even designing educational tools to inspire the next generation of space pioneers.

Would you like to know more about the competition's themes ? That will be the fantastic combination of ideas, Let me share some thoughts to inspire you:

Creating Habitats:
- Design habitats that can adapt to the harsh conditions of the Moon and Mars, such as in-situ resource utilization (ISRU).
- Think advanced life support systems, such as water recycling and air purification.
Renewable Energy:
- Develop energy creating system and storage solutions that ensure continuous power supply in extreme conditions, even during long Martian nights or Moon eclipses.
- Explore nuclear power as a stable energy source for critical systems.
Educational Tools
- Design interactive kits to teach students about space exploration, challenges of living on other planets, and planetary sciences.
- Create games or challenges that simulate space missions, encouraging teamwork and problem-solving skills.

As space exploration becomes increasingly accessible and artificial intelligence redefines learning environments, education faces urgent challenges in aligning technological advancement with ethical responsibility. The so-called New Space Age—driven by commercial interests and rapid innovation—demands a reorientation of educational aims to address planetary and interplanetary futures. This keynote explores how STEAM education can support the development of Action and AI Competence to prepare students for complex ecological, ethical, and technological challenges. Grounded in the frameworks of Education for Planetary Wellbeing (EfPW) and the GreenComp sustainability competence model, the talk emphasizes the need for transdisciplinary learning that integrates systems thinking, critical reflection, and civic engagement. Building on the concept of cosmogogy (Lindsay, 2025) and creative ecologies (Harris, 2017), the presentation positions schools as ecosystems where students not only gain digital and scientific competencies but also develop ethical awareness and collective agency. The focus is on how education systems—through experiential, project-based, and AI-enhanced pedagogies—can cultivate responsible futures thinking and support sustainable action within and beyond Earth. The keynote draws on Finnish and international educational practices to illustrate practical approaches to implementing these goals, while raising critical questions: How can we ensure responsible use of AI in educational contexts? What competences are necessary for learners to contribute meaningfully to planetary and space-related sustainability? And how can STEAM education serve as a bridge from technical expertise to ethical foresight?
