The Power of Self-Organized Learning

This story touched me in many ways.  It's about children in New Delhi stopping by a computer made available to them and learning how to use it on their own.  It's about the power of curiosity and intelligence in the midst of slums.  It's about discovering how children learn and share their knowledge with other kids. It's about how all us of can learn something new.

This article is an excerpt from Professor Sugata Mitra's new e-book, Beyond the Hole in the Wall: Discover the Power of Self-Organized Learning.
