Teaching technological technological forecasting to undergraduate students: a reflection on challenges and opportunities

This discussion article contains a reflection of the challenges I encountered while teaching technological forecasting to undergraduate students. I group these challenges into three groups: the inherent uncertainty of the forecasting process, the lack of appropriate learning materials, and existing methodological inconsistencies. I discuss how these challenges appeared in my classroom, and whenever possible, how I tried to solve them. I conclude by discussing some actions that the forecasting community could undertake to facilitate both teaching and research in this field.
