  • The education industry, like so many others, is busy being transformed by the Internet.
  • he best possible system of education actually existed thousands of years ago. And what the Internet can help us do is go back to it, with one important modern twist: scale.
  • individual relationship between an enlightened tutor and an eager student
  • ...10 more annotations...
  • there simply aren't enough expert teachers with enough time to bring every child along
  • If the 21th century is to be a time of progress, education must continue to expand. This makes it even more difficult to provide individual instruction for all the world's students.
  • That's the promise of the Internet, which excels above all else at scale: scale of information, social interactions, geographic reach.
  • The acid test I apply to every new initiative is: to what extent does it bring us closer to the old system of individualized, personal, expert instruction, except with scale?
  • Online tutoring is an example of a promising Internet-driven innovation. Companies like TutorVista and Smarthinking let hundreds of thousands of students get on-demand personal help in their homes at a reasonable cost.
  • online systems that can "diagnose" individual students' strengths and weaknesses and dynamically generate a tailored curriculum.
  • Other innovations lie somewhere in between the two
  • It's important to remember that many of the most important education innovations lie outside the Internet.
  • But the Internet will also disrupt. Textbooks, for example, can't continue in their present form
  • two principles: first, invest in Internet innovations that bring us closer to the vision of universal, personalized instruction; and second, champion those designed to complement, rather than replace, traditional academic institutions.
