You don’t actually need to know anything, you can find out at the point when you need to know it. It’s the teachers job to point young minds towards the right kind of question, a teacher doesn’t need to give any answers because answers are everywhere.

I’m encouraging kids to use computers at their own pace to build aspirations.

Teachers say to me, ‘The internet is full of rubbish, wrong answers.’ But you would be surprised how just long it takes to find wrong information on Google, and where it’s not obvious that it’s wrong.

The bottom line is, if you’re not the one controlling your learning, you’re not going to learn as well.

My wish is that we design the future of learning. We don’t want to be spare parts for a great human computer.

Experiments show that children in unsupervised groups are capable of answering questions many years ahead of the material they’re learning in school. In fact, they seem to enjoy the absence of adult supervision, and they are very confident of finding the right answer.

If children have interest, then Education happens.

It’s quite fashionable to say that the education system’s broken – it’s not broken, it’s wonderfully constructed. It’s just that we don’t need it anymore. It’s outdated.

My wish is to help design the future of learning by supporting children all over the world to tap into their innate sense of wonder and work together. Help me build the School in the Cloud, a learning lab in India, where children can embark on intellectual adventures by engaging and connecting with information and mentoring online. I also invite you, wherever you are, to create your own miniature child-driven learning environments and share your discoveries.

Knowing is NOT the most important thing. To be able to FIND OUT is more important than knowing.
