The Future of Education?

My friend, Karin, forwarded this YouTube clip to me the other day, called Changing Education Paradigms and I think it is so thought provoking!  As a teacher and as a parent I think it is a good watch.  Also, the presentation style is so engaging and interesting.  It's bringing up a lot of issues that we have been discussing at school lately and if you're a parent, this may give you some insight about what's going on with your kids at school (or perhaps, what is not - but maybe what should be - going on with your kids at school).  I forwarded it to my Vice Principal today and we are going to watch it at our next staff meeting and discuss some of the issues brought up in the segment.
