Education has always produced an incredible amount of data; that's always been obvious to me. But technology had to catch up.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'd aspired to give people a profound education - to teach them something substantial. But the data was at odds with this idea.
Data is cost. It takes money to create data, store it, clean it, and throw resources at it to learn anything from it.
Data is the fabric of the modern world: just like we walk down pavements, so we trace routes through data, and build knowledge and products out of it.
There is an enormous market demand for information. It just has to be fulfilled in a way that fits with the technology of our times.
In an information society, education is no mere amenity; it is the prime tool for growing people and profits.
The fact is that data are worth a lot of money.
I feel there is so much more we can do in improving education, making it accessible and understanding how technology can be a part of the solution.
Knowledge is power. Information is liberating. Education is the premise of progress, in every society, in every family.
Education should not be about building more schools and maintaining a system that dates back to the Industrial Revolution. We can achieve so much more, at unmatched scale with software and interactive learning.
The Age of Information, Has turned out to be the Age of Ignorance.
