Qantas model of edcuation


Today I got to attend a Keynote presentation by Joel Davies (more on Joel) from Apple.  He was presenting on "Flipping the classroom: Sticking the landing."

He made me laugh out loud on this thought:

Education today is the Qantas Model:

  • Sit down
  • Face forward
  • Strap in
  • Turn of all portable electronic devices
  • If you're lucky your trip will be relevant
  • You may resume your life in a few hours
Work hard today and tomorrow to break that mold...

DING!

You are now free to revolutionize education...
