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

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.

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

I was inspired by the Hole in the Wall project, where a computer with an internet connection was put in a Delhi slum. When the slum was revisited after a month, the children of that slum had learned how to use the worldwide web.

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

People are adamant learning is not just looking at a Google page. But it is. Learning is looking at Google pages. What is wrong with that?

In nine months, a group of children left alone with a computer in any language will reach the same standard as an office secretary in the West.
