À l'occasion de la rentrée, OWNI hacke l'Education nationale.
I spent a lot of time on this blog in the past month exhorting everyone to give teaching tools to the neediest public schools .
Last fall I wrote a post on this blog titled Hacking Education . In it, I outlined my thoughts on why the education system (broadly speaking) is failing our society and why hacking it seems like both an important and profitable endeavor. Our firm, Union Square Ventures , has been digging deeply into the intersection of the web and the education business in search of disruptive bets we can make on this hacking education theme. My partner Albert led an effort over the past few months to assemble a group of leading thinkers, educators, and entrepreneurs and today we got them all together and talked about hacking education for six hours. The event has just ended and my head is buzzing with so many thoughts.
