Infos

The Science and the Story of the Future of Learning Educators have been trying to harness the "e;promise"e; of technology in education for decades, to no avail, but we have learned that children in groups-when given access to the Internet-can learn anything by themselves. In this groundbreaking book, you'll glimpse the emerging future of learning with technology. It turns out the promise isn't in the technology itself; it's in the self-directed learning of the children who use it. In 1999, Sugata Mitra conducted the famous "e;Hole in the Wall"e; experiment that inspired three TED Talks and earned him the first million-dollar TED prize for research in 2013. Since then, he has conducted new research around self-organized learning environments (SOLE), building "e;Schools in the Cloud"e; all over the world. This new book shares the results of this research and offers * Examples of thriving Schools in the Cloud in unlikely places * Mitra's predictions on the future of learning * How to design assessments for self-organizing learning * How to build your own School in the Cloud * Clips from the documentary, The School in the Cloud Discover the future of learning by digging deep into Mitra's thought-provoking experiences, examples, and vision.
