This TED talk about self-teaching illustrates the power of self-education and how its proper deployment can change the way we educate our children for the better. At the same time, the findings of the research discussed in this talk have application to adult learning as well. We must move away from the concept that only teacher-led instruction is of the highest value. That’s not always the case and we need to start recognizing this fact if we’re going to improve the means by which we educate ourselves and educate society. Enjoy this talk by Sugata Mitra and let me know your thoughts.
