With schools closed throughout the country as a result of the Ebola epidemic, Sierra Leone is bringing the classroom into students’ homes through the use of educational radio broadcasts.

FREETOWN, Sierra Leone, 21 October 2014 – At the end of a labyrinth of small streets in Freetown’s New England neighbourhood lies the home of 13-year-old Uleymatu Conteh. Normally this morning she would have made her way to school dodging the motorbike taxis and the market women selling fruits, sweets and bread. Instead, she is sitting on the floor of her home, listening to the radio and taking notes while leaning against a wooden stool.

Another way distance learning is helping people learn.

I am blown away by the fact that amidst this out break that people in this country are so hungry for learning that they are finding any source for education that they can.

I am not against charter schools; they work for some people. But when state politicians - who make a fortune off of them - claim them to be the magic answer to the woes of education, I have a problem. It's time we call for transparency in the DOE and for Mike Pence' regime, and let Glenda Ritz do her god damn job.

Changing the way that we teach - and learn - can be scary. However, there needs to be a shift in the way that information is presented and students are evaluated. Yes, it might be more work, but the upside is a smarter more engaged student. Don't fear change, embrace it.

Sad to see that some people can't understand that just because you may not agree with something doesn't mean it's not worth learning about.

An excellent article about he amount of screen time students have.

Schools are designed on the assumption that there is a secret to everything in life; that the quality of life depends upon knowing that secret; that secrets can only be known in orderly successions; and that only teachers can properly reveal these secrets. An individual with a schooled mind conceives of the world as a pyramid of classified packages accessible only to those who carry the proper tags.
