Article written in India newspaper about the Flat Classroom and Flat Classroom conference held in Mumbai. I loved this quote: "To become what the project aspires won't actualise without delivering on imperatives of access and inclusion. Consequently, the idea 'How can I include those who are not like me' underlined most discussions at the conference. There, says Davis, Web2.0, far from being a cultural flattener, is "a culture enhancing tool. It lets students who don't travel, travel virtually, and makes them see where cultural disconnects are happening." For a first-hand experience of these gaps, participants visited Akanksha and Aseema schools that reach out to the underprivileged. One Australian participant came back and told her remote virtual classmates: "Today I stepped through the gaps between the rich and the poor, from Aseema to ASB.""

"The "Big Idea" in The Lexus and the Olive Tree is found on page 232 where Friedman explains that: "if you can't see the world, and you can't see the interactions that are shaping the world, you surely cannot strategize about the world." He states that "you need a strategy for how to choose prosperity for your country or company.""

The Lexus and the Olive Tree is a 1999 book by Thomas L. Friedman that posits that the world is currently undergoing two struggles: the drive for prosperity and development, symbolized by the Lexus, and the desire to retain identity and traditions, symbolized by the olive tree. He says he came to this realization while eating a sushi box lunch on a Japanese bullet train after visiting a Lexus factory and reading an article about conflict in the Middle East. Friedman leads the reader on an international quest for a new understanding of the often misunderstood and misapplied term "globalization" by tapping on to stories of his actual experiences in interfacing with many of the global movers and shakers. He proposes that "globalization is not simply a trend or fad but is, rather, an international system. It is the system that has replaced the old Cold War system, and, like that Cold War System, globalization has its own rules and logic that today directly or indirectly influence the politics, environment, geopolitics and economics of virtually every country in the world."
