The Future Of Education

It is the complaint of many parents of school going children that schools of today do not provide a healthy practical knowledge or engage their minds to think. Well, it is not the problem of the school, its all pure business today. Surely knowledge is free for all. But to get that knowledge you need to see it in front of a book and no way books are free.

So what do we do to meet the solutions of the problems mentioned above. Well this innovation has been designed to to do just that. This one is inspired from the movie “Matrix”. The students would be having an opportunity to learn the subject in a pure virtual environment.

In this innovation the students are required to go to school and once reaching there they would have to chose the lessons they wish to learn by selecting a “data chip” from the data chip gallery. The data chip gallery is a place where all the topics of the lessons are installed. Well, lets just assume for now that they would need a prior permission from the teacher to issue those chips. Once obtained, all they have to do is just plug those chips into some device which is acting as the medium between the matrix and the real world allowing the children to hop in the world of education. For example, if the topic such as atomic structure is selected, a student would see a brief history of John Dalton, Thompson, Rutherford and various other important contributing scientist. Obviously, they would have an option for skipping this intro. Then the fun part begins, they would learn the structure of atom through interaction, like sometimes they would find themselves inside the atom or sometimes they themselves as proton.


What you can do with this type of innovation is endless. So I added one additional point- today books are written by authors, they could even make data chips and sell it. We have best educational books by some authors, so we can have some best data chips also being made by them as well, thereby increasing the competition.
