What the U.S. education system can learn from the developing world: Adam Braun at TEDxUNLV

[@timothybeach6582]

Adam, when you got to the part about movement in the classroom, I was about to tell you that this can be seen in Montessori classes - and then I saw that Jan P already posted a similar comment below. The main difference is that, in a Montessori class, it's movement with a purpose and independent and interdependent child-centered learning. One of the great advantage of establishing alternative schools in underdeveloped countries is that the government is not as likely to interfere and tell you how to do it. Where children are being neglected and there's no all-powerful educational bureaucracy, there's likely to be more freedom to individualize and teach kids the way that they actually learn.

Great talk! Great work Adam is doing . many of the positive education concepts he refers to can be seen in the #Montessori classroom. Our current education system here in US certainly needs a huge overhausl

I think also with forcing our kids to sit and not move we're actually teaching them to be more lethargic which maybe causing them later on to be more lazy and less likely to be physically active which is an increase in cardiovascular disease.
