RSA Animate - Changing Education Paradigms

As a resident of a third-world country, I witness firsthand the effects of mediocre education on a daily basis. Have we as a society been consumed by the idea of individual greatness and progress, that we overlook the many faults and loopholes in the systems that govern us as people? The dwindling quality of intelligence and intellect in our peoples is not only prevalent, but it is left ignored. This is an interesting video that seeks to shed some light on the issue at hand. Perhaps it is time we rid ourselves of the systems that intend to serve as liberators but instead serve as shackles to our growth as human beings.
