Rethinking Education

So, i just watched the video "Rethinking Education". Go ahead and watch it, you can find it here.


So, i thought this is a pretty inspiring video. It gets you thinking about stuff my generation sees as normal, cause were used to it, but also about how education right now isn't at the same state the youth is at. In most schools the form of education is still pretty "oldschool" (no pun intended). The video shows that there are ways and possibilitys to use modern technology to communicate knowlege better and to reach the students through the digital environment they're already used to navigate in.

Well, but there were also some minor points i didn't like. I thought the way the video was mapped into the classroom, especially at the beginning, looked really out of place and therefor was distracting from the content of the video. At least thats how i felt.
And with another thing i'll have to agree with what someone mentioned in the comments. It's beeing talked about music and work of all kinds are accessible on the internet, but forgets that many might be copyright protected, and so either not freely accessible or infringing the rights of its owner.

But these are, as mentioned, just minor points and shouldn't be given too much weight. After all ist a great video that reaches out to the viewer and manages to inspire.
