Where does education go from here?
On Tuesday, Sugata Mitra accepted the 2013 TED Prize and offered a bold wish for the world: that we encourage children to explore questions about our world in self-organized learning environments. He proposed the founding of a School in the Cloud based in India, and encouraged TED community members, wherever they may be, to foster education by encouraging a sense of wonder in kids.
Certainly gives me something to think about, after the success of his "Hole in the Wall" experiments. The idea of students working in self-organized learning environments may have many applications but will it work for the majority??
