The future of education

View Presentation

See slide 156 of this presentation by Yukai Chou for the original version of this brilliant vision of the not-so distant future of education:

“How educators will likely become facilitators and cheerleaders instead of teachers in a world where students can get more information than what the educator knows faster than she can say it, and how education should reward students for who they are and how they are unique, instead of shame them for who they are not … Students (even good students!) abhor tests and do it just because they have to. Very few people look forward to tests. If we successfully gamify education, then “assessments” will be seen as an exciting opportunity for students to unlock new materials and skill-sets instead of always being a drag.”
