Education and its approaches for a new system are a constant in our world, but some schools and governments are stubborn and keep thinking with a Eighteen Century Head.
Technology is already a part of our Education System; however, it is important to humanize it, as it is explained by Salman Khan during the TED lecture.
Really good idea developed by Mr. Salman, which breaks the old education format and recreates by giving the teacher the power of tutoring and not just preaching over the students as if the students are a herd.
Of course, under this method teachers need to understand their students, they must see where the problem is and try to fix it, a little bit more harder than just throw words to the crowd and expect the students pick them up (and for those who are not able, they are the problem).
Enjoy it.

Sir Ken Robinson - Changing Education Paradigms
Sir Ken Robison is an well know education expert, and besides all the critics that people shoot on him, he really makes us think outside the box with his lecture about public education.
Some people say that he doesn't present any solution for the problems he point out, at same time he just approach the subject in an tangential way. But the question has been established and we need at least to discuss it.
