I am not sure if its a sensible idea but I am re-editing grameeneducation.com : imagine what job creating education can do i... around a youth survey of what happens if you marry the most personal education system in the world eg city montessori and the most virtual eg 5 billion person elearning satellite www.yazmi.com . GrameenEducation hardly has an audience so can iterate content without much political harm if people see ways to make this dialogue more constructive

One of the most extraordinary is Gordon Dryden. He took my father and my 1984 ideas on future of education and has spent 30 years experimenting with how ti make new zealand students and teachers the most curious questioners instead of the mast examined . Somewhere along the journey of The Learning Web - Home Page ten million chinese families bought Gordon book. This probably means that Singapore is the space most impacted by his freedom of education- though welcome update gordon!

Subject: Re: wonderful talk at brookingsHi Chris,
Thank you so much for your kind words! I have passed your note on to Shannon. I'm sure she would have loved to contact you directly, but as she is traveling this week and likely out on maternity leave starting next week - this might not happen. I will add you to our mailing list so that we are able to stay in touch in the future.
Warm regards,

Gkobal Social Health & elearning.ppt, 319 KBwww.yazmi.com provides a tipping point opportunity -currently the only elearning satellite that 5 billion people can beam down from
as well as standard educational curricula traditional educators may want to share, how about of we provide at least demonsratton information on the how to work with the back from the future global social value chains that jim kim commends to millennials as being integral to making 2015-2030 the most exciting years on -and for sustainability and end poverty on- planet earth
for example if the knowhow for the networking actions that have been pioneered by such global social health connectors as those mapped below started to be .linked together in a course that yazmi beamed down, how wonderful for millennials to share could that be?
x Dear Friends of African Millennials at World Bank
am writing to ask whether some members of both African Societies might be interested in seeing a demonstration of the pan-african elearning satellite yazmi led by Ethiopian Diaspora (founder Noah Samara who Naila and I finally met last week)
Originally in radio version in the 1990s Noah's driving purpose at that time had been to share info so as to minimise hiv. What was huge was negotiating across all african countries a common frequency- an advantage no other continent in the world enjoys for information programming as far as I understand
When I see the parallel challenge (eg jim kim's video this week) of ending ebola as fast as possible and need to restimulate the effected economies it seems to me that the 30 year knowhow of jim kim's and paul farmer's partners in health and our friends at BRAC who are active in both liberia and sierra leone due to support from George Soros needs to be distributed as action learning across grassroots networks

survey 1of child centric education
My dream: everyone experiences Harrison Owen OpenSpace After%20the%20Rage.pdf
IF SCHOOLS were child centric they would make age relevant interventions:
if anyone is illiterate at age 6 it only takes 90 days to change that - best of all a literate kid can be main helper in 20 minute session - see sunita gandhi
finacial literacy would be practicsed from age 8 - see aflatoun ( works in 100 countries
from age 10 pre-teens would have access to pfysical and mental health studies designed peer to peer -see Lancet
no kid would leave primary school without knowing how open space meetings/teamwork is facilitated
teachers would be celebrated for clarifying which skills involve experiential learning not classroom examination - while there is some recognition that music and sports involve practice, its shocking that coding isnt valued this way ..
==============
Do you have life-changing moment to share? - what was it and what did you think or do differently after it?
example until 9/11, i assumed that (good) futures are happening somewhere in the world and would be searched out so that all could communally replicate them; === 9/11 caused me to question whether global connectivity will give us time to find sustainable solutions for our kids- i became particulaly interested in places where good education leaps appeared but did not get app'd the world over - one example actually goes back to my favorite 1990s advances in schools that a small cliuster of new zealand schools pioneered - download it here https://oiipdf.com/download/the-learning-revolution
i welcome discussion of this book's parts at any time rsvp chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk if you have a solution every community that develops youth could be cooperational
in 1984our book with economist editors 2025report made the case for 40 year commitment to every child identifying own skils dashboard and maximising AI curation of this- we valued this as sustainability critical worldwide cooperation - we see no logic for changing this concern
== we live in an age where most up to half of knowhow of techforgood changes every 3 years - we needed mindsets for exploration not for being standard examined; a nation that makes its college students its largest debt class is likely to collapse economically socially environmentally if web3 is designed for celebrating sustainability cooperation; and if web3 is not designed for neough yout to linkin the first sustainability generation then we are all heading the way of the dodo
I am learn to learn
TECH - What is IT? and which exponential multipliers most impact human and natural futures?
AI >. silicon chip singularity (ie when one chip > one brain in pure analytical capacity) - science fictiion no moore
who programs the ai - the race to include lost voices eg girls- the world of statistics re=-examined like never before (eg previously mass statistics very weak at coding meaining from numbers)
Biotech >> Affective science (loveq and emotional intelligence remains human's unique edge over artificials for at least 10 more years!)
Some people say that Virtual or Augmented Reality has advanced at its best so far in last 12 months that there are hardly any qualified teachers only pioneering explorers- does this matter - well its VR which is your gateway to web3 - intead of just a mobile device you will like wear a visual sensor system; equally others argue that you shouldnt worry about how fast you put googles on - what you should want is to take back ownbership of what you spend time creating virually- look at the small print of the big platforms you probably dont own anything without them..maybe this is a generation issue bu interstingly the met-generation can now work on chnaging anything that old systems are destroying (eg climate) ...t
IOT which things will now have brains and be as mobile connected as you are
Crypto - can communities celebrate financiang their own most urgent sustainability cooperations? if they dont who wil?
Cyber >> Drone - opportunities and threats of public spaces- first in spaces like the arctic circle if we dont use drones we will get no warning before the big meltdown
-the mkist memorable western campus event i attended in 2010s was tufts colllaboratory summit convened mainly by arctic circle youth under 25;
one of the main debates how to help teachers in arctic circle schools empower their students to use virtual reality to visit other arctic circles schools communities; many of the changes and solutions are analogous; I am reminded by educators leading the compilation of virtual realty libraries of the DICE acronym - a reen might want to do something dangerous like climb everest, why not VR simulate that? there are impossible things a trainee doctor will never be able to travel inside a humans gut but that can be VR'd; there are catastropghic simulations - you would rid the world of bees just to test if donald is wrong about nature being more powerful than he is, you can simulate it; or the future of smart tourism may be curation of what a community is proudest of being visited for - this way ecotourism, cultural appreciation exchanges can be twinned to maximise celebration of each other- and by the way friends of the tourist can join in virtually- of corse this raises a metaverse question - that Hong Kong is leading the world on
being 100% public - good and bad hacs- note context matters - context 1 smart city context 2 isolated vilalge no moore context 3 make a huge land safe at borders
