Nelson Mandela said, ‘Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.’
Everyone who got an opportunity to go to school, is empowered with this weapon. However, it is the type of education that matters more. Knowledge is freely available these days but what most schools aim at is teaching facts. Right knowledge, at the right time and in the right way is missing. Most educators are trying to put square pegs in round holes. It just doesn’t fit.
I highly recommend the book ‘Free to Learn’ by Peter Gray which talks more about the importance of play and the problem with our education system.
