I watched your presentation on TED and at the end of it you said you were researching Education. Well, I just listened to some statistics on the radio. here is the link to the written article: http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/business/2009/08/090804_peter_day_comment_aug_04.shtml There is also a podcast with the same name. Statistic 1. In formal learning situation the best retention rate a corporation an hope for is 20%. Statistic 2. One study shows that information is doubling every two years. Statistic 3. It takes 10 years to become an expert at something. This BBC article is about innovations in learning and education within companies. But perhaps some of these ideas can be reworked for public grade school education. Kids who are learning the old fashioned way will just get left in the dust. Why even send them to school, unless you need a babysitter, if they will only remember 20% of what they learn. Why not give them an interactive and meaningful environment? Obligation is the death of pleasure and pleasure in living every day is my goal for everyone on the planet. I couldn't find a related topic to post this, so I am just typing it in, hoping that it will get read. If there is anyplace I can hop on to become part of the education investigation, please let me know. I am a US ex-pat living in Eastern Europe. Mother of 4 :) Cheers! Hi Tim!

I wanted to tell you that I am entering a professional teachers' program at the University of Colorado next month. If you want any insights into how teachers are trained, I would be glad to give you some insights. If the school system is going to change, how the subjects are presented will have to be a major part. It's frustrating to me that in ten minutes I can teach *anyone* how to write a book, but it takes four years to teach a student how to write a five-paragraph paper. Hey Tim,
