DenPratt Posted November 26, 2014 Posted November 26, 2014 Thank you very much, Jzd! My daughter home schools and takes some "seminar" classes at a learning center. This technology turns the entire college experience into "seminar", which always seemed to me to be a more fun way to learn. Don't Let School Hold You Back, Dennis
FriendlyHacker Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 The issue with reinventing education is that every attempt to automate the process has fell into the problem of learning being a social behaviour, it requires that people have someone to talk to and get mutually motivated.The way I think about solving the education problem, is also by stripping down everything that does not work and improving the things that work, but my approach is a bit different because my ultimate goal is to replace the social aspects of it by augumented reality and artifical inteligence, in that way, student to student interaction happens in virtual/augumented reality, but the actual teachers are replaced by AI. And of course replacing theachers with beliavable human-like avatars, that are programmed to understand human emotion and react accordinly, is still many years away from currently available technology.
