If you are curious what one of the most profound education thinkers and theorists of the last 100 years thinks about the future of education,it might be worth catching sight of the Paolo Friere & Seymour Papert's video on the "Future of School".
Learn more about Paolo here. The classic Pedagogy of the Oppressed is oft-cited in edu-circles as being profound and world-changing (or eye-opening, at least).
Just discovered it thanks to an email suggestion last night from Stephen Downes who pointed me to the TALO (Teach and Learn Online) Google group. My first list-serve email arrived this morning...and with it came the link to Paolo's video. What a great morning gift.
Thanks for the suggestion, Stephen!
