In an interview this weekend, Tim Adams met Amit Singhal Google search of big fish. During the synthesis brief history of Google, and the goal is to draw new knowledge, a question came to me, that should be disturbing many of us - what it means for teachers

Currently, Google search works reflex - that is, it learns from you as you learn from it. The amount of time you spend on a page, if you click again and modify your search are listed in order to make your search more efficient and smooth. Not only that, but now associated free - was the example, typing "10 Downing Street" takes partner sites to do with the government and the Prime Minister, and address only. Quickly by typing "Michael Gove" bring not only their policies, but it is assumed that the Samaritans Helpline too. So it will really be a time saver. I digress. Whilst good news for education? Maybe. Mr. Singhal said that, in reality, "the most precise machine is used, the issues become lazy." And work as a teacher, to see how young people access Internet content, which may be sadly true.

not all bad news, however. Teaching simply adapt. How we work with children with brain training and how to learn, and what we do with the knowledge that access could and should be a priority more in education.

reminds me of a question that was asked Reddit: "If someone in the 1950s appeared today, it would be the hardest thing to explain life TODAY ' Today "The best response?" I own a device in your pocket, you can access all the information known to man. I used to see pictures of cats and compete with strangers. "


Knowledge is nothing without the tools to interpret. Critical thinking, decision-making skills with group learning and interpretation of knowledge is highly valued in the very near future. Meanwhile, we are talking about teaching to the test, and if we bring Latin or not. We found a shortcut to learning evolution. Education must adapt accordingly. So, why not?
