How We Will Learn
in the 21st Century

EXCERPT
p. 163: What is left then, is to make certain all children receive the minimum that young Virginians were to have, what the Dutch children managed to get from their chaotic schools, and what and young Lincoln acquired before he set out on his courses of self-tutelage. Rather than trying to argue here that doing so will be sufficient to let youngsters begin building their own foundations of knowledge by using the Internet, I refer you to the section on EdClicks.com called the Ladder of Knowledge. You will find examples there of places to learn simple things and to learn things simply.


Should children climb ladders of grades
or webs of compexity?
