Sugata Mitra: We Need Schools... Not Factories - 0 views

    • Iztchel Alcala
       
      Interesting how it relates the traditional massive style of teaching to the Victorian age where all the students had to be taught at the same pace and exactly in the same way to guarantee massive production; not anymore!
  • a bit of history: to keep the world's military-industrial machine running at the zenith of the British Empire, Victorians assembled an education system to mass-produce workers with identical skills. Plucked from the classroom and plugged instantly into the system, citizens were churned through an educational factory engineered for maximum productivity.
  • We need a pedagogy free from fear and focused on the magic of children's innate quest for information and understanding. -- Sugata Mitra
