Quotes:
05:40 “If you can organize a terrific birthday party, you can definitely do project-based learning.”
12:30 “The academics actually end up being the easiest part of this to deliver. Building the community is the most important part, so the children are spending their days in an inspiring community and having access to the tools of their generation for hands-on, high-quality projects.”
14:25 “I think everybody deserves to have an educational format that suits them.”
30:42 “We don’t need to take the lion’s share with this kind of education; we just need to be able to be a platform for people for whom (traditional education is) not working.”
