Changing Education Paradigms


This video explains much of what I think is wrong with the American educational system today. It has been structured around a nineteenth century Industrial Revolution concept of standardization and memorization. That concept worked in a time when we needed humans to do the work that is now done by machines, but now we need humans to do the work that cannot be done by machines... And that is where creativity and collaboration come into play.
