مدرسة العالم الواحد: إعادة تصور التعليم

حول هذا الكتاب:

A free, world-class education for anyone, anywhere: this is the goal of the Khan Academy, a passion project that grew from an ex-engineer and hedge funder’s online tutoring sessions with his niece, who was struggling with algebra, into a worldwide phenomenon. Today millions of students, parents, and teachers use the Khan Academy’s free videos and software, which have expanded to encompass nearly every conceivable subject; and Academy techniques are being employed with exciting results in a growing number of classrooms around the globe.

Like many innovators, Khan rethinks existing assumptions and imagines what education could be if freed from them. And his core idea-liberating teachers from lecturing and state-mandated calendars and opening up class time for truly human interaction-has become his life’s passion. Schools seek his advice about connecting to students in a digital age, and people of all ages and backgrounds flock to the site to utilize this fresh approach to learning.

في THE ONE WORLD SCHOOLHOUSE، يقدم خان رؤيته الجذرية لمستقبل التعليم، بالإضافة إلى قصته الرائعة، لأول مرة. في هذه الصفحات، سوف تكتشف، من بين أمور أخرى:

* كيف أصبح الطلاب والمعلمون ملتزمين بنموذج معطل من أعلى إلى أسفل تم اختراعه في بروسيا قبل قرنين من الزمان
* لماذا ستجعل التكنولوجيا الفصول الدراسية أكثر إنسانية والمعلمين أكثر أهمية
* كيف ولماذا يمكننا أن ندفع للمعلمين نفس رواتب غيرهم من المهنيين؟
* كيف يمكننا إعادة الإبداع والتفاعل الإنساني الحقيقي إلى التعلم
* لماذا يجب أن نكون متفائلين جداً بمستقبل التعلم.

Parents and politicians routinely bemoan the state of our education system. Statistics suggest we’ve fallen behind the rest of the world in literacy, math, and sciences. With a shrewd reading of history, Khan explains how this crisis presented itself, and why a return to “mastery learning,” abandoned in the twentieth century and ingeniously revived by tools like the Khan Academy, could offer the best opportunity to level the playing field, and to give all of our children a world-class education now.

More than just a solution, THE ONE WORLD SCHOOLHOUSE serves as a call for free, universal, global education, and an explanation of how Khan’s simple yet revolutionary thinking can help achieve this inspiring goal.
