Ex-Content Head Khan Academy
Our children are going to enter a world that's very different from ours. Much of what our children learn in schools today will be irrelevant for the jobs of the 21st century. As the famous historian and philosopher Yuval Noah Harari describes, they are going to be 'Learning Nomads'. He says that we currently use a production-line inspired education system from the 19th century to stuff our children with a truckload of facts in the hope they can get a job that they can keep for the rest of their lives. This won't work anymore. Instead, they have to be trained to become lifelong learners. The first step to this is that children must be taught 'how to learn', so that they are quick to adapt to an environment that is going to demand them to re-invent their careers and themselves every few years. This includes developing the essential mindsets and skills that will play a pivotal role in navigating the dynamic landscape of the 21st century.

Edtech Neoschool, StayQrious launches science foundation course for middle school
With StayQrious Neo-school, we have changed three core things about the way science is taught today. The first is the way the science curriculum is arranged. We have changed the curriculum from a linear list of textbook topics that makes every topic look important to a circular arrangement of specific core concepts that students master, starting at the centre. The second is the teacher’s role. We’ve changed the role of teacher from lecturer to a learning-coach, specially trained in learning psychology and study strategies. The third is the methodology. We have changed the methodology from a time-table based classroom to a mastery-based one where students undergo exciting and meaningful learning experiences. Instead of being rushed to the next topic because time is up, they get ample time and support to develop confidence and a lifelong love for the subject.

Aanand Srinivas on "Learning How to Learn"
Aanand Srinivas says "The blind spot in education is that kids are being asked to learn for 18 years of their life, but are never told how learning works. “It’s kind of imitating a bodybuilder by looking at what he is doing by standing outside the gym."
