I agree. I also believe that technology done right should make all things, including education more enjoyable and less stressful. Not that you can take away all stress of life, but just simplify and streamline all areas that can be to give people more of their own time or at least more agency in their path forward.
Agreed! I see back to old times of apprenticeship... That will be one new way... And another one, that I'm keeping under wraps for now. This is great but it's also destroying many children and adults eyesight and other things unless it's limited and part of another whole movement of the body.❤

The public education system is ruined in America. In 30 years, we will be light years behind many other countries due to our inability to improve education techniques. This will cause a diminished influence on global cluture which may be a positive. Schools like give us hope. Bravo ALTSchool!
I think schools should add a new subject that is about how to make fires, simple foods, and another important things everyone need in the future. Like if you agree.
I think student should show up to a large comfortable space with its own kitchenette, fridge, table, bathroom, desks , rec area and green space that students design and decorate themselves. It will not be the teachers classrom, it will be your classroom. You can even have a pet if it does not bother another student. You will have 14 classmates and will show up to school in flex period. No bells. Siri will be watching and recording you. You specialized teachers will arrive in 1 hour30 min blocks for through lessons. Only 4 subject a day with math everyday and everything else on a loop schedule. All computing will be wireless and you will have your own device. You will be pulled from your classroom for labs, theater, sports in small groups, so during pars of the day there may only be 7 students in a classroom. It's probably then you will pull your lunch from the fridge and heat it. Then you will go to small group activities and the other half of your class will have lunch. Every student will have their own individualized education plan. Your teaches will only have to keep track of about 50 students, but they rove between classrooms.
Children need to learn how to think, not what to think. This is a grave issue in mainstream schooling nowadays. To develop agency is to learn how to reason and make informed, intentional and meaningful decisions for oneself. Educational innovation is the pathway to transforming schools. I appreciate Alt Schools ideas toward this transformation.
I like the idea behind this school. However, I am not hearing much about the importance of collaboration. We all need to learn empathy, embrace diversity as well as learn to negotiate and plan in a team setting. This I would say, is a pretty fundamental 21st-century skill.

Will this be available for lower income and poverty consumers? All of this will be null and void if you can't reach the people who needs this the most.
MantisNectar The current public school system is already garbage but basically free to all who cannot afford it. When the cost per student reaches their goal amount, it’ll be essentially a matter of time before schools start taking note and those lucky enough to have people who care leading the school board will have their schools switching curriculums.
Hmm I have a idea of a structure.but it won't help.this world is based a economic system that this system(schooling) won't be more useful for entrepreneurs.a man(entrepreneur ) needs his money and his well being somehow but not societies wellbeing(improvement)
I love this idea, where was this godsend of a man 20 years ago, he understands that someone learns best when they are actually interested in the subject, if they begin to falter, do not condemn the child, find out why the falter took place and see if you can make them interested again with a different approach, brilliant man
As a middle school student that is dissatisfied with the current system of education, I strongly believe in this model for education. I have tried and failed to make school work for me, and I feel like if I had been using this all my life, I wouldn't be experiencing the negative mindset school has put me in these past few years.
Education is very important. I completely agree that everyone needs different education. Something else I think is important to know is that you can not make someone learn. If an individual refuses to learn, no amount of disciplinary action can help them as many schools commonly promote. There has never been a time where self-education was more achievable. Unfortunately, it is also very discouraged.
Why am I worried about personalised education? Why do I fear this will segregate education back to the time prior to 1920 with the haves and have-nots? All this costs money. How do we make this available to the inner city kids? The kids whose parent do not work for Google or Microsoft or Bank of America. Why do I think the have-nots will be even worse off than they have been up to know. The gap between the educated and the uneducated (and thus unemployed) is going to expand exponentially. Don't get me wrong, I love this idea. All I'm saying is that it comes at a cost. There must be a more inclusive approach somewhere.
not necessarily, because eventually hardware will be so cheap and it will mostly be about software. Look how now anywhere in the world they have access to all the worlds knowledge on wikipedia etc. The first few generations of the software might be expensive but then there will be cheaper versions for the rest of the world. The rich countries might always have the super bleeding edge software, but it might not be objectively that much better. Kind of like certain medical treatments now. You can pay 100k to get it in the US and it might be slightly better but you can also pay 2K in Thailand.
To everyone saying they want to go here, I go to the same school as Max Ventilla’s daughter and he sold the school last year, and trust me, normal schools are better then this once middle school arrives. The original idea was good but it fell apart after late 2017. Not worthy of 25k tutiton. I am in 7th grade and are preparing to transfer, the world is not ready for this yet.
Just had this conversation with my colleagues and I also imagine a future that offers more advancements to our future leaders that give us the push we need to break this stagnation we have settled into. This would also free up government costs lost in fruitless public schools.
Kids should be experiencing actual human decency, regardless of age, as a student myself ive seen so much and so little being done between myself and my friends, the school system is just messed up. We are not in the Victorian era, we dont need workers, we need innovative creators, we need people who are able to do what they like, we need people
While your idea of making the education system more tailored to one's own curiosity is a good one, it does not seem available to the wide general population who are paying taxes to their individual school districts to get free public education. I don't know the cost model for a consumer for this type of education system but I can tell it is not the most economical one.
It is our duty, as parents and as teachers, to give all children the space to build their emotional strength and provide a strong foundation for their future.

I wish I could open a school like this here in Brazil. I myself have a language school and I try to do different, but having a support from a school like yours would be much more different.
So, they’re asking for people to pay for school? Most people can’t afford 15-60 K per kid, heck I know family’s with 5+ kids. Definitely would be interested in public schools using this though.
As a sped teacher I am trying to do this for my students but yet, I need the summer to prepare and time for this individual curriculum planning for each student.
I am a teacher... And I coudn't agree more! Whilst being in the traditional classroom enviroment, I do find 2 things: 1. Change will be slow. 2. The syllabus gets in the way of true education. And I make sure that inter-relationships and self-esteem are the order of the day.
Great! This is what we are doing (planning on doing) as well! Almost all parts of it is what we envision with Teal School - and then we'll add a self managed school organization as well, no hierarchies. I just read the Forbes article about the struggle, but I do believe the time has come for this paradigm shift and I fully agree that we have to be the change we want to see. /Sarah, Teal School
I don't want my kid learning on an apple machine though. Why is this guy working for Google, quoting Bill Gates then stocking whole classrooms with Apple products?? XD
Great video!! This gives me hope for future generations, but sad that my generation won't experience it- we're still in the outdated assembly line mentality
we want an education system that any child can afford that is the main issue but this is still a first step. the major concern is the positive response in putting it into practice in terms of solving the problem that we already have of unemployment.. where are those children going to practice the things that they have learned is still a major task.... thank you for the inspiration
YES in the 1800's students would be subordinated to take on the role of teachers to teach younger students, since it was usually only one teacher in a school house, and this hierarchy puts less strain on the teacher as well as involves all of the students more, instilling them with a greater sense of responsibility. The greatest teachers are also students, and the greatest students are also teachers.
Collective learning is important. Time for exploration and free learning can be built into the day, but we want to make sure that all kids are learning together the fundamental basics for their grade. This does not mean that those who want to go faster will be limited. They can use their free time during the day to go further --- the question is -- can the schools afford the materials that support exploration? Once again, collective learning and collective memory is important for human development.
I go to the same school as Max Ventilla’s daughter and he sold the school last year, and trust me, normal schools are better then this once middle school arrives
Even if it does make that change soon sadly I’m currently almost out of high school and people like me who spent most of their childhoods in unfortunate school systems will not be around to experience a better more changed education system
I’m a grandmother, Native American woman who knows that Indian boarding school trauma is school trauma and is no different now. The model is still the same. I’ve made the decision to change this. Going back to school this fall, creating a conversation with educators and community
Make it so school hours are fluid, they can move the starting up to x hour, but they must move the end hour to make it so they still have enough school for each day Provide resources with students, I currently want to run a poll but I have no resources!
The education system needs to be overhauled, however I'm not sure I full understand how this new paradigm works from watching this video. Where can I find a deeper dive into this and it's applicability to the student body's of the university?
I think studying in this education system really sucks ...... after high school every student should focus only on skills and work hard and learn as much as he can..... going to college and spending 4 years is total waste of time......
I love this idea. However this would only be a reality if governments are willing to pay extra for good quality education. The only way for the education system to advance is by supplying more money for this type of education.
Look up the Reggio Emilia approach, it's an educational philosophy where students lead and teachers guide and encourage. Instead of homework, children work on projects and can choose what project they want to work on. There are no tests, no worksheets, no lesson plans. Instead there are centers for children to explore different materials (mainly natural or recycled) and ask questions and then the teacher builds on the student's curiosity. Reggio education was developed after WW2 in a small town in Italy, so this concept has been around for a long time but many people don't know about it. I taught at a Reggio preschool for 4 years and the kids were happier, more confident, and more creative than kids who had to go to a traditional school where they have to sit in a boring class and memorize stuff they are forced to learn. The only issue is that the school I used to teach at is only for rich kids. It's a very expensive school with small class sizes. This type of school needs to be free for everyone.
Sounds good, do you have any recomendation or literature to read on how to complement education at home for children? I love all the innovative new aproach at this matter, but being realistic its not about to be implemented everywhere, so i´m concerned as a parent how I can complement the current type of education at home without overwhelming the kids. Sorry for the english I´m not a native speaker.
@@Fernando-vn2ms How old are your kids/is your kid and what country do you live in? There's isn't a blanket approach to homeschool education. It depends on the child's age, how they learn, where they live, and what their interests are. It also depends on how much time you have per day to dedicate to their education. I know it can seem overwhelming if you aren't a teacher and don't really understand how it all works, but it really depends on a lot of factors. I can't recommend a random book without knowing more information about your situation.
When i think about how many YEARS of my life i wasted CRAMMING useless things in school,that i will never need,i cringe. School should prepare kids for the REAL world. Todays world is radically DIFFERENT from the world that was 200 years ago when this school INSANITY started.
It's an important debate, as a teacher I trully see the need for inovation in education. I do also believe we shall look into the traditional model with a little more pride, because it was responsible for the greater achievements we've accomplished in society so far, including technology itself. We can't nor should we simply toss it. Food for taught...
This is great. When I was a kid I was part of the GATE program, the school ended funding for the program. I was soon subject to adults who would dictate what I do and when I did it, I quickly lost interest. I sometimes wonder what I would be if I had spent those years expanding my knowledge instead of playing video games and sneaking beers. In short, the public education system failed me greatly. (oh and my state spends about 40k/student)
As i watch this video i got to know tha Max Ventilla is no part of this startup, i really loved the concept of this kind of education but you know in the startup world is all about the right time to launch. I am sure what Max Ventilla said is going to be there not today but tomorrow for sure.
I was doing some rearch and thinking about starting a school. But as i thought about it and did some search on youtube I came to understand that in the future schools will not be in buildings. So investing over 1 million dollars would be a waste!
Going back to badics... Apprenticeships will be back... Very quickly. Stand next to the pro and learn. I was learning how to cut hair at 12 years old in a BARBER SHOP... Shaving men with a straight razor at 14 and opened mybown shop at 21 years old... NEVER went to school. All apprenticeship with ONE man. Nooney exchanged.❤
This is a great idea but first you’d have to convince the nation and it’s leaders to give a crap about education and schools. Many of the ones making decisions were raised in the factory model of school and can’t see past that. They are not creative or innovative thinkers. Hell, many simply cannot understand how important creativity is to learning. They see things like art, music, etc as unimportant when it comes to school. Teachers in many places are told that students are not allowed to draw, paint, etc in class.
This looks better than most of the more common public schools but my question is where is nature? Where is literature and poetry? Is there anything but technology, math and science? I loved the school outside Santa Rosa where each class was graded as a whole, not individual grades and they had a beautiful garden where they grew food and then learned to cook. Depending on technology should not be everything but hopefully combined into the creative, artistic side of being a full human.
School today is already very different, in our school already uses projectors than whiteboards or blackboards and our homework is online, it already changed alot somehow makes school more fun because it is relatable in our daily life. Yup found an essay for my homework XD
Thank you thank you thank you so much I loved this video it so true I think a child needs to have a individual experience that why I prefer homeschool kids get to learn at there own pace I loved this video thank you!!!!
if school systems never change then, more formula will appear, more subjects will appear, more stuff to learn, more pressure will be placed on students. it's up to you to overthink about what happens next.
Curious as to what the model is to foster collaboration and building those social emotional connections. This is truly an amazing concept, how do you analyze where the students are? What about standardized testing? Is it not state mandated? I wholeheartedly think we need to move to a learn by doing education system. However, it cannot be all technology. Fine motor skills are lacking now in school, communication skills as well, forget writing. Most students come in not even knowing how to hold a crayon in Kindergarten. Nonetheless being able to read at the end of Kindergarten. Yet The system wonders why children cannot read. Ummm could be that developmentally, they are behind. Or that the system needs revamped. This is very interesting and makes me want to dive in a bit.
I really hope to have an answer from anyone on the company. I have been a student all my life and belive things could be better. After 4 years of looking for my life purpuse I belive it is to revolucionise the education system. I would like to know, how could individualization enter in a online educational service?
They need to consider the fact that some kids work better in classes, some online, some in nature, some unstructured, some a bit structured, some fully structured, etc
I have been saying for a long time that the education system is SO yesterday. It all needs to change with the times. Its so awesome to see some one out there with brains to set up something so wonderful like this for the young student of today!

Step 2: Make a Document that addresses the problems & solutions for the education systems.
Step 3: We all come together and Send that document (via Mail) to Policy Makers, Government officials, media companies, and so on.
If enough people (hundreds, maybe thousands) send that document and we can gain enough support and attention, I think we can make a Huge difference, no matter who we are.

Will this be available for lower income and poverty consumers? All of this will be null and void if you can't reach the people who needs this the most.
MantisNectar The current public school system is already garbage but basically free to all who cannot afford it. When the cost per student reaches their goal amount, it’ll be essentially a matter of time before schools start taking note and those lucky enough to have people who care leading the school board will have their schools switching curriculums.
Couldn't agree more
As an educator, I've been taking note. The answer is consistently no to everything, especially forward ideas such as these.
He said 15 000$ per years was his objective in like 2 years sow maybe one day
That's great Gsage why don't you develop an offshoot company then for lower income and poverty consumers.
We’ve pretty much have had the same style of “education” for nearly a century
Hmm I have a idea of a structure.but it won't help.this world is based a economic system that this system(schooling) won't be more useful for entrepreneurs.a man(entrepreneur ) needs his money and his well being somehow but not societies wellbeing(improvement)
I like how you put “education” since 98% of what you learn in school is a waste
I love this idea, where was this godsend of a man 20 years ago, he understands that someone learns best when they are actually interested in the subject, if they begin to falter, do not condemn the child, find out why the falter took place and see if you can make them interested again with a different approach, brilliant man

As a middle school student that is dissatisfied with the current system of education, I strongly believe in this model for education. I have tried and failed to make school work for me, and I feel like if I had been using this all my life, I wouldn't be experiencing the negative mindset school has put me in these past few years.
Education is very important. I completely agree that everyone needs different education. Something else I think is important to know is that you can not make someone learn. If an individual refuses to learn, no amount of disciplinary action can help them as many schools commonly promote. There has never been a time where self-education was more achievable. Unfortunately, it is also very discouraged.
Quite true
Why am I worried about personalised education? Why do I fear this will segregate education back to the time prior to 1920 with the haves and have-nots? All this costs money. How do we make this available to the inner city kids? The kids whose parent do not work for Google or Microsoft or Bank of America. Why do I think the have-nots will be even worse off than they have been up to know. The gap between the educated and the uneducated (and thus unemployed) is going to expand exponentially. Don't get me wrong, I love this idea. All I'm saying is that it comes at a cost. There must be a more inclusive approach somewhere.
Nothing's for free.
not necessarily, because eventually hardware will be so cheap and it will mostly be about software. Look how now anywhere in the world they have access to all the worlds knowledge on wikipedia etc. The first few generations of the software might be expensive but then there will be cheaper versions for the rest of the world. The rich countries might always have the super bleeding edge software, but it might not be objectively that much better. Kind of like certain medical treatments now. You can pay 100k to get it in the US and it might be slightly better but you can also pay 2K in Thailand.
Its already 3 yrs passed since this video, MOVE FAST AND BREAK SCHOOLS!
To everyone saying they want to go here, I go to the same school as Max Ventilla’s daughter and he sold the school last year, and trust me, normal schools are better then this once middle school arrives. The original idea was good but it fell apart after late 2017. Not worthy of 25k tutiton. I am in 7th grade and are preparing to transfer, the world is not ready for this yet.
Which school you are studying?..Asking for info purpose so that more people get informed
Just had this conversation with my colleagues and I also imagine a future that offers more advancements to our future leaders that give us the push we need to break this stagnation we have settled into. This would also free up government costs lost in fruitless public schools.
Kids should be experiencing actual human decency, regardless of age, as a student myself ive seen so much and so little being done between myself and my friends, the school system is just messed up. We are not in the Victorian era, we dont need workers, we need innovative creators, we need people who are able to do what they like, we need people
While your idea of making the education system more tailored to one's own curiosity is a good one, it does not seem available to the wide general population who are paying taxes to their individual school districts to get free public education. I don't know the cost model for a consumer for this type of education system but I can tell it is not the most economical one.
Post-Science Universal Permanent Education: Change the habit of memorization to that of reason.
Keep working people
We need to change the world
There is a LOT of things that need to be done
Education problem is number 1 issue
It is our duty, as parents and as teachers, to give all children the space to build their emotional strength and provide a strong foundation for their future.
I wish I could open a school like this here in Brazil. I myself have a language school and I try to do different, but having a support from a school like yours would be much more different.
So, they’re asking for people to pay for school? Most people can’t afford 15-60 K per kid, heck I know family’s with 5+ kids. Definitely would be interested in public schools using this though.
Have you never heard of a private school?
"As of June, 2019 AltSchool ceased operating schools directly and rebranded as Altitude Learning, a software company."
As a sped teacher I am trying to do this for my students but yet, I need the summer to prepare and time for this individual curriculum planning for each student.
I am a teacher...
And I coudn't agree more!
Whilst being in the traditional classroom enviroment, I do find 2 things:
1. Change will be slow.
2. The syllabus gets in the way of true education.
And I make sure that inter-relationships and self-esteem are the order of the day.
Good job alt school is doing. Hands-off, innovation+creation enhancing, amazing work
I hope to be a part of educating children for a better future. Thanks!
Great! This is what we are doing (planning on doing) as well! Almost all parts of it is what we envision with Teal School - and then we'll add a self managed school organization as well, no hierarchies. I just read the Forbes article about the struggle, but I do believe the time has come for this paradigm shift and I fully agree that we have to be the change we want to see. /Sarah, Teal School
I don't want my kid learning on an apple machine though. Why is this guy working for Google, quoting Bill Gates then stocking whole classrooms with Apple products?? XD
Really, girl? that was a really poor question
Great video!! This gives me hope for future generations, but sad that my generation won't experience it- we're still in the outdated assembly line mentality
we want an education system that any child can afford that is the main issue but this is still a first step. the major concern is the positive response in putting it into practice in terms of solving the problem that we already have of unemployment.. where are those children going to practice the things that they have learned is still a major task.... thank you for the inspiration
Please someone bring this to Miami. My kids need programs like this!! Amazing Video.
the schools don’t exist as this company is now just a software company
What grades is your schools teaching? This is a beautiful example for everyone to follow I applaud you and your team
now make the student teach the students two grades lower than them.
YES in the 1800's students would be subordinated to take on the role of teachers to teach younger students, since it was usually only one teacher in a school house, and this hierarchy puts less strain on the teacher as well as involves all of the students more, instilling them with a greater sense of responsibility.
The greatest teachers are also students, and the greatest students are also teachers.
Impressive! I wish you every success, because it looks like people will benefit greatly from your success! Cheers.
Collective learning is important. Time for exploration and free learning can be built into the day, but we want to make sure that all kids are learning together the fundamental basics for their grade. This does not mean that those who want to go faster will be limited. They can use their free time during the day to go further --- the question is -- can the schools afford the materials that support exploration? Once again, collective learning and collective memory is important for human development.
Congratulatin you on your accomplishments. WOW!!! That concept will help a lot of children. Wish you all the best for your work. Marion Hopfgartner
I wish I can go to these schools the schools here are the same old stuff
I go to the same school as Max Ventilla’s daughter and he sold the school last year, and trust me, normal schools are better then this once middle school arrives

Even if it does make that change soon sadly I’m currently almost out of high school and people like me who spent most of their childhoods in unfortunate school systems will not be around to experience a better more changed education system
i am a pricipal at this school in zzimbabwe how do i get to talk to you in helping me transform our school into the above mentioned info
Teacher unions are the biggest hurdle to innovation in my opinion
Imagine having couches instead of chairs in school🤯
Such a good idea! Make it so kids don't have to learn certain things and can go mostly with what they actually like to learn
I’m a grandmother, Native American woman who knows that Indian boarding school trauma is school trauma and is no different now. The model is still the same. I’ve made the decision to change this. Going back to school this fall, creating a conversation with educators and community
How did it go? Any luck reaching out to them help in any way?
What is this education system called?
I wish I could also build the best school like this❤❤❤❤
Great video...GREAT concept for individualized learning.
Make it so school hours are fluid, they can move the starting up to x hour, but they must move the end hour to make it so they still have enough school for each day
Provide resources with students, I currently want to run a poll but I have no resources!
Online school laughing behind
The education system needs to be overhauled, however I'm not sure I full understand how this new paradigm works from watching this video. Where can I find a deeper dive into this and it's applicability to the student body's of the university?
I think studying in this education system really sucks ...... after high school every student should focus only on skills and work hard and learn as much as he can..... going to college and spending 4 years is total waste of time......
Amit Kumar Singh Why?
I love this idea. However this would only be a reality if governments are willing to pay extra for good quality education. The only way for the education system to advance is by supplying more money for this type of education.
In the future, schools will allow kids to learn whatever they want, whenever they want, and as long as they want
Look up the Reggio Emilia approach, it's an educational philosophy where students lead and teachers guide and encourage. Instead of homework, children work on projects and can choose what project they want to work on. There are no tests, no worksheets, no lesson plans. Instead there are centers for children to explore different materials (mainly natural or recycled) and ask questions and then the teacher builds on the student's curiosity.
Reggio education was developed after WW2 in a small town in Italy, so this concept has been around for a long time but many people don't know about it. I taught at a Reggio preschool for 4 years and the kids were happier, more confident, and more creative than kids who had to go to a traditional school where they have to sit in a boring class and memorize stuff they are forced to learn. The only issue is that the school I used to teach at is only for rich kids. It's a very expensive school with small class sizes. This type of school needs to be free for everyone.
Sounds good, do you have any recomendation or literature to read on how to complement education at home for children? I love all the innovative new aproach at this matter, but being realistic its not about to be implemented everywhere, so i´m concerned as a parent how I can complement the current type of education at home without overwhelming the kids. Sorry for the english I´m not a native speaker.
@@Fernando-vn2ms How old are your kids/is your kid and what country do you live in? There's isn't a blanket approach to homeschool education. It depends on the child's age, how they learn, where they live, and what their interests are. It also depends on how much time you have per day to dedicate to their education. I know it can seem overwhelming if you aren't a teacher and don't really understand how it all works, but it really depends on a lot of factors. I can't recommend a random book without knowing more information about your situation.
Good Video Thanks U Teaching Me A Lot Now My School Project Is MUCH Easier :)
Dont ever change your intro💜
When i think about how many YEARS of my life i wasted CRAMMING useless things in school,that i will never need,i cringe.
School should prepare kids for the REAL world.
Todays world is radically DIFFERENT from the world that was 200 years ago when this school INSANITY started.
It's an important debate, as a teacher I trully see the need for inovation in education. I do also believe we shall look into the traditional model with a little more pride, because it was responsible for the greater achievements we've accomplished in society so far, including technology itself. We can't nor should we simply toss it. Food for taught...
It's basically a Montessori School but with technology.
I'm from the future, still not there... 🤔
This is great. When I was a kid I was part of the GATE program, the school ended funding for the program. I was soon subject to adults who would dictate what I do and when I did it, I quickly lost interest. I sometimes wonder what I would be if I had spent those years expanding my knowledge instead of playing video games and sneaking beers. In short, the public education system failed me greatly. (oh and my state spends about 40k/student)
As i watch this video i got to know tha Max Ventilla is no part of this startup, i really loved the concept of this kind of education but you know in the startup world is all about the right time to launch. I am sure what Max Ventilla said is going to be there not today but tomorrow for sure.
Survey and poll kids of all grades to see what they generally want and what would be cool
The best learning is to learn how to bring value to society that's all make lot of money n save... N the best learning is by self
Great video!
Why did it fail?
This is a revolutionary idea but I’m afraid how it applies in 10-15years and it’s peripheral effects on fields like healthcare and economics.
I was doing some rearch and thinking about starting a school. But as i thought about it and did some search on youtube I came to understand that in the future schools will not be in buildings. So investing over 1 million dollars would be a waste!
So, there will ne students who het to graduate without basic reading or math skills due to they choose other interests??
I agree,we need to teach our children how to think not what to think
Going back to badics... Apprenticeships will be back... Very quickly.
Stand next to the pro and learn. I was learning how to cut hair at 12 years old in a BARBER SHOP... Shaving men with a straight razor at 14 and opened mybown shop at 21 years old...
NEVER went to school.
All apprenticeship with ONE man. Nooney exchanged.❤
The Prussian model of schooling has to go! It's static, shows a contempt for personal liberty and is very archaic!
i want to be a kid again, and go to this school
This is a great idea but first you’d have to convince the nation and it’s leaders to give a crap about education and schools. Many of the ones making decisions were raised in the factory model of school and can’t see past that. They are not creative or innovative thinkers. Hell, many simply cannot understand how important creativity is to learning. They see things like art, music, etc as unimportant when it comes to school. Teachers in many places are told that students are not allowed to draw, paint, etc in class.
This looks better than most of the more common public schools but my question is where is nature? Where is literature and poetry? Is there anything but technology, math and science? I loved the school outside Santa Rosa where each class was graded as a whole, not individual grades and they had a beautiful garden where they grew food and then learned to cook. Depending on technology should not be everything but hopefully combined into the creative, artistic side of being a full human.
School today is already very different, in our school already uses projectors than whiteboards or blackboards and our homework is online, it already changed alot somehow makes school more fun because it is relatable in our daily life. Yup found an essay for my homework XD
You barely actually explained how the schools actually operate, what the curriculum is like, and how it's all implemented practically.
It failed and the schools closed in 2019.
Thank you thank you thank you so much I loved this video it so true I think a child needs to have a individual experience that why I prefer homeschool kids get to learn at there own pace I loved this video thank you!!!!
I have some idea regarding new education model how to get connected
if school systems never change then, more formula will appear, more subjects will appear, more stuff to learn, more pressure will be placed on students. it's up to you to overthink about what happens next.
Curious as to what the model is to foster collaboration and building those social emotional connections. This is truly an amazing concept, how do you analyze where the students are? What about standardized testing? Is it not state mandated? I wholeheartedly think we need to move to a learn by doing education system. However, it cannot be all technology. Fine motor skills are lacking now in school, communication skills as well, forget writing. Most students come in not even knowing how to hold a crayon in Kindergarten. Nonetheless being able to read at the end of Kindergarten. Yet The system wonders why children cannot read. Ummm could be that developmentally, they are behind. Or that the system needs revamped. This is very interesting and makes me want to dive in a bit.

Please guys, Come and save us from our Mad "education"
This was 6 years ago and the school is closed.
I really hope to have an answer from anyone on the company. I have been a student all my life and belive things could be better. After 4 years of looking for my life purpuse I belive it is to revolucionise the education system. I would like to know, how could individualization enter in a online educational service?
They need to consider the fact that some kids work better in classes, some online, some in nature, some unstructured, some a bit structured, some fully structured, etc
Great idea and ambition but it failed. 🤔 Education is a tough nut to crack for Silicon Valley. 🤔
