Bill Gates Annual Letter
Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has made a few grants to push for online learning (this must be my calling!). Finally a potential answer to ending our nation's ineffective public education system! Now students can access quality lectures from some of the best professors in the world. Sites like academicearth.org will revolutionize the way students and teachers interact. Students will be motivated to enter an online course that caters to their needs and provides the individual feedback that they need from their teachers. Online learning is the solution to effective education.

ReplyDeleteYour post makes me think of a speaker I recently heard (was it Jeff Cole??? Or maybe it was a web interview with Seth Godin???) that said in the future of education we'll all learn from the #1 expert on everything, regardless of where they live or if they're even alive! No reason to have all the filters in between and any limitations.
