Hole in the Wall Project

An thought provoking talk. Must see.

Speaking at LIFT 2007, Sugata Mitra talks about his Hole in the Wall project. Young kids in this project figured out how to use a PC on their own — and then taught other kids. He asks, what else can children teach themselves?

Key points:

  • Remoteness affects the quality of education
  • Educational technology should be introduced into remote areas first
  • Values are acquired, doctine and dogma are imposed
  • Learning is a self-organising system.
