"It's not about making the learning happen, but LETTING it happen." YES😍
This is the very best presentation about school reforming I have ever seen in my life. It touched me to tears. What an amazing, kind and humble person. This is true love.

"It's Not About Making Learning Happen, It's About LETTING Learning Happen." SOLE 💙
Such an intelligent, humble man with such an important message.
According to Mr. Mitra -- the future of learning is not a competition -- it's asking great questions and encouraging the answers. He reminds us that the most profound ideas are often the simplest. Thank you, Mr. Mitra.
This talk makes me think of the Khan Academy, a website that has a bunch of different curricula that anyone is free to study from. I'm currently studying math on that site. I did really bad in math classes in secondary school, but I'm hoping that learning it at my own pace will help. I have ADD, so school tends to be really hard for me; I tend to learn better when I'm studying on my own since I can take breaks when I need to and don't have to worry about stressful tests and quizzes while I'm trying to learn. I guess what I'm saying is that this kind of school could also be very helpful for adults, not just for children. Some of us don't do very well in a traditional school but learn very well in a self-directed environment. I hope that this kind of school becomes established. In fact, I hope that this idea of self-directed education becomes more widespread. It's a very valuable idea for the future of education.

Good for you!
Loved this talk! Love the wise man! He literally answered all the questions I had on this topic about "boring education" and "lack of motivation". I kept smiling all the way through the video out of delight and enjoyment. I want Sugata Mitra and Salman Khan to be a ministers of the education in the world, because they not only know what they are doing, they also love it!
This needs more views, wow.

Excellent talk! I completely understand this teaching method. I use it EVERY SINGLE DAY as an adult. Problem, research, solution. Not Problem, go to school to learn 10,000 useless things barely associated with my problem, focus group, solution. Collaboration, idea sharing toward a common goal...great stuff.
I'm revisiting this video with a co-learning person for about the 8th time, 8 years later, it still brings tears to my eyes.
We are looking at the man who is changing the world right now. This guy must be mentioned in text books of future. Oh wait, but will there be text books if there wont be any schools! :) :) Anyway, if every teacher and parent on earth listens to Sugata, the world would be drastically better place in no time, i don't care if you agree with me or not.

If you read more extensively about these hole-in-the-wall projects, you'll actually find that most failed. Many computers were vandalized, computers broke down (without anyone to fix them), and electricity was cut off when bills weren't paid for the excessive usage. Here's one such piece about what happened. donaldclarkplanb.blogspot.com/2013/03/sugata-mitra-slum-chic-7-reasons-for.html Mitra is a wonderful speaker - inspirational and thought-provoking. But his presentation masks the reality of these sorts of endeavors.

Tom Buckley The whole webpage that you linked the blogger never talk about anything that is of concrete evidence against his whole idea. The idea that computers breakdown with no one fixing them, and electricity cutout when the bills were not paid. All those come down to funding and running a proper system. Computers were vandalised that‘s why when you noticed him saying at the end of his speech you need real life mediators.
Who else watching this amazing video in 2019? Omg I love this granny cloud! XD

Excelente, me emocionei profundamente! " Vá em frente"
I've seen this video 10 times, and keep ketting moved by the wisdom of Mr Sugata Mitra. I love seeing the kids playing with the computer.
I don't have a word beautiful enough to describe how beautiful talk this is
This is brilliant! What an amazing human being. This is one of the most inspirational Ted Talks I've heard yet. Thank you thank you for the work you do! 🙏
One of the most eye opening speeches I have ever heard!
Amazing!!! What a beautiful achievement!
I have never seen anything close to this. This is so great
An exciting concept for learning in the 21st century, "a school in the cloud." Found Mr Mitra's talk inspiring and entertaining. As a retired teacher and grandma I endorse the fact that the best learning happens when students are inspired, encouraged, and praised for their curiosity and discovery. Modern day technology inspires excitement to learn. An engaging teacher /facilitator/grandma is an important part of the process.
This is an amazing proposal! I truly enjoyed this TED TALK and its radical view of education. As a secondary school teacher, my feeling is that before we built the School in the Cloud, we need to reimagine our schools. We should be there to provide a positive environment rather than threatening children with exams and distrust. After all, exams are too frequently a way to instil fear. Surely we should start by celebrating our students and facilitating their learning. We only prepare them for this every day more uncertain world if we teach them how to think for themselves!
Sugata is a highly intelligent and engaging speaker/educator. This mind bending video is geared towards teaching professionals and educational leaders who support innovative and creative pedagogical change. Thank you Sugata.
Please continue with this project, I teared imagining how beautiful the world could be...
Awesome, insightful and motivating...
One of the best TED talks i've ever seen. Understood current education from the scratch. I & my friends have always been complaining about "EDUCATION SYSTEM" but he approached it very sophisticatedly..

Incredible! This is the future of education - flipped classrooms, and enabling children to learn rather than forcing them. Once of the best TED talks I've seen 👌
Incredibly inspirational! We all learn so much because TED talks are all shared in the cloud. It's amazing to think of the potential that technology holds for the future!

30 years ago, University of Georgia's science education philosophy was to capture the imagination of middle school learners (especially females) by making science hands-on and fun. Every year since then, I've incorporated ideas and activities to achieve this goal. SOLE is yet one more way to capture the minds of our youth.
great, the future of learning. there is so much we can achieve when we are open to learn irrespective of the age of the teacher
As a father to 3 young children Im beyond inspired. I’ve been a big critic of our education system but haven’t had a solution. This is the solution.
Wow what a message, love it
I am glad to be part of this initiative
it great. I love the info for my classes. It amazing and inspired me as teacher too.
absolutely great
This is unbelievable, we are really fortunate with such important information we need to keep with time and as S Mavrodi says we are living in the world that is unfair and unjust. The cloud school is a sound idea because the syllabus is not moving with this technological time we live in. We will be lead by greatest of them all leaders who are all ready bringing a true change in all of our lives. We are forever grateful.
I am very much happy to be a part of this forum
Wooow... This is great. Very inspiring
Well presented. I loved it and loved his way of giving the speech. Well done.
Amazing! A great achievement!
very inspiring school in the cloud. very wonderful

Un concepto emocionante para aprender en el siglo XXI, "una escuela en la nube". La plática del Sr. Mitra inspiradora y entretenida. Estoy de acuerdo en el hecho de que el mejor aprendizaje ocurre cuando los estudiantes son inspirados, animados y elogiados por su curiosidad y descubrimiento. La tecnología moderna inspira emoción para aprender.
