Great posts, I work for a large corporation and we are doing a lot of work to get kids interested in technology. It is a fine line we have to walk though. One of the problems is getting teachers to really get out and have time to figure out what is happening in the real world.
I hope that everyone realizes that the K-12 teacher in the US is extremely overworked. If the parents did more at home with the children, a lot of the problems we are seeing would dissipate.

But then again, I think that maybe artificial intelligence would help out in education.

Well, if the current one can't be saved, mind as well make a new one. As education revolution sets the example of a better way, people will undoubtedly flock towards it. There are a lot of people wanting this. Amazing what you can do with code.. =) Thanks Kareem!

It appears you guys are up to some serious good. I'm very glad I now have you on my radar. Good luck getting in a flow state whenever you're solving problems. There's tons of microlearning ahead!

You have no idea how right you are...

This blog has now become a daily stop for me as I continue my quest to reform education from the inside out.

Best,
