Sugata Mitra1: Kids can teach themselves


TED 2007
Sugata Mitra1: Kids can teach themselves (script)
summary
What do you think about taking education and technology? You think that it won't be needed there, don't you. It shows that there are students who can receive better education already. It's because it's tested in the best schools in the urban. There are perfect teachers and perfect schools there. If students live in areas which are very far from the city, and which teaches don't want to go, they won't receive better education. Future educational technology should be used for such students. We have to think that remoteness affects the quality of education. Educational technology should be introduced into remote areas first. There are values that doctrine and dogma are imposed on the education. Leaving is most likely a self organizing system. It's not how to use the correct technology for education but an educational technology should be digital, automatic, fault tolerant, minimally invasive, connected and self organized. It's because children in the world have skills that can teach themselves.
Words in this story
remoteness / solitude, isolation
doctrine / a belief or set of beliefs held and taught by a church, political party, or other group.
dogma /a principle or set of principles laid down by an authority as incontrovertibly true. : teaching, belief
