education
Harlem Childrens Zone wikepedia Quantum School... an brief experiment in education. Today's child is bewildered when he enters the 19th century environment that still characterizes the education establishment where information is scarce but ordered and structured by fragmented, classified patterns subjects, and schedules" Marshall McLuhan 1967
"Education is the most powerful tool you can use to change the world." Nelson Mandela
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsunesaburo_Makiguchi TsunesaburÅ Makiguchi An example of his proposals was the creation of an educational system comprising a partnership of school, home and community, each of which had responsibility for a specific part of the educational task. In this system, a child would spend half day in school and the other half in apprenticeships and other types of work activities at home and in the community befitting the nature and needs of the child. Mr. Makiguchi felt that implementing his proposed system would change bored, apathetic learners into eager, self-directed students. He devoted much consideration to the relationship between life and education, developing his theories on the creation of value, the happiness of the individual, and the prosperity of society at large.
