I was going to point you to Richard Stallman's article on education, Googled "richard stallman education" and your interview with him on the topic was the first result!<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I wanted to make the point that to me, Richard's views on education raise this question for me - "Do we want to teach students to share, or do we want to teach students to withhold information that may be of value to others for personal gain?"<BR/><BR/>The latter view is so deeply entrenched in our capitalist worldview it's sacrilege to even raise it, let alone challenge it!Seanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18419600125156911249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18676377.post-1165506929200515572006-12-07T07:55:00.000-08:002006-12-07T07:55:00.000-08:002006-12-07T07:55:00.000-08:00Steve,<BR/>Great thoughts. I was just having a similar conversation with some principals the other day. We were chatting about how perhaps the high-school kids that we all work with, and that are heavy Web2.0 users, etc. will pick up on the nuances that have made Google and others so popular AND financially successful, and will integrate that into their endeavors.<BR/><BR/>Chris O'Neal<BR/>www.edleadersonline.orgChris O'Nealhttp://www.edleadersonline.orgnoreply@blogger.com
