Khan on Future Learning

Courtesy of the KhanAcademy guy, creator of all those thousands of two-to-ten minute lectures with questions attached, we have "Future Learning" (from Good Magazine)

with a number of interesting thoughts.

• "The lecture is only valuable if you have that question in your brain..."
• "The school is gonna be one or two Really Big classrooms..."
• "If a bunch of kids want to take a month or two off to build a robot, go ahead -- you're not going to miss class, there's no such thing as missing class..."
• "The teachers are fountains of knowledge, experience, mentorship, humanity -- as opposed to fountains of a scripted lecture."

Or then again, maybe not.
