It’s NOT the Problems of Education You Need To Worry About, IT’S THE SOLUTIONS That Are MOST Concerning
George Siemens delivers a powerful message in this TED talk. His introduction is a segway from a prior presentation that he comments on. He says:
The Problem of Education does not concern me, quite as much as the solutions to the problem of education concern me.
