EDGEX 2012: About Disruptive Education
ID, Other Reflections,
Mar 06, 2012
I am as I write on my way to EdgeX in Delhi (this post is being created in the airport at Brussels). It's my first trip to India and it brings together a number of the people who have in an important way (I think) been reshaping education. "If you believe that the current education system is failing us, is no longer sustainable, is neither fair nor equitable, then this is the conference for you. If you have ever been inspired by the writings of Paulo Freire (Pedagogy of the Oppressed, Pedagogy of Hope), then this conference is for you. It is about disruptive education. About freeing education from the shackles of a building (call it school, college, what you will) and democratizing it." That, in one paragraph, is what we're about.
