“Give them a laptop…

and a group of pupils will teach themselves”

Just read this article in the www.guardian.co.uk that provides a compelling story of what I would call true 21st Century Learning.  http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/2010/oct/18/sugata-mitra-slumdog-teach-self

The author, Sugata Mitra, is professor of educational technology at Newcastle University (sugata.mitra@newcastle.ac.uk). I feel like I should write her and say YES, what you’re talking about makes sense.

We are embarking on a new era of learning that is unlike anything we’ve known. Read the article and you’ll see what I mean.
