The person Zhang Quan is going to meet today is also to solve the problem of education.

Since returning to Earth, he has consulted extensively with relevant educators and has also searched for experts in the field for himself around the world through various consulting firms.

As a result, he has heard a lot of fashionable pedagogical terms such as unattended education and self-directed learning, and he also has a certain concept of the development of modern pedagogy.

However, so far, he has not met anyone who can solve his own problems. Those education experts talk a lot, but they can do a lot of things, and many things are just a concept in their mouths, but as for how to do it and what the results are, not many people care.

I met with a number of experts recommended from various channels, but in the end they didn't solve the problem, and the so-called experts are so capable? At this moment, he was a little disappointed in the so-called education community.

Let's hope this last guy today won't let himself down!

He looked at the doorway, then lowered his head and glanced at the time,

The man was an Indian, and his name was Sugat Mitra.

……

Sugart was a typical Indian, with curly hair, big eyes, a round face, and he looked like he was fifty or sixty years old, and his appearance was probably of the white race among Indians. His Indian English stumbled, so that the communication between the two was not very smooth at first.

"I'm glad someone understands my experiments, thank you!"

He seemed very excited, and when he came up, he wanted to hug Zhang Quan, but Zhang Quan only gave him a hand. Holding Zhang Quan's hand vigorously, there was no embarrassment on his face,

"Dear Zhang! You've read my lab report for you! It works great, really good! If you can support me to expand the scope of my experiment, I think we will have a great victory, really, this is a pioneering achievement, an initiative that will be engraved on the monuments of history, and you, me, all of us, will leave their names in history because of our participation in this project. ”

He looked at Zhang Quan expectantly, waiting for his answer.

It seems that this is a real scientist, Zhang Quan commented in his heart. Raunchy, informal, not accustomed to communicating with people, and focusing only on what he cares about, which is typical of scientists.

"If you can reintroduce your experiments to me, I think we have a good chance of working together." He said to Sugat.

"I'm a practical person, and I want to know everything about this project, what you think, how it works, and the results of this experiment."

Sugart was stunned for a moment, "Oh, of course! Then he immediately became more excited, he didn't realize that this was Zhang Quan's shirk, but became more energetic. Of course, I want my collaborators to know every detail of us. He said,

"Well, this experiment started with this idea, as you said in your letter to me, how to teach in an environment where the language is not spoken and there is no teacher. Oh, and I have to say, it's really a terrible environment. If the educational environment of any country in modern society is so bad, I think it will be difficult for them to make economic progress......"

“…… Well, our teaching is based on the principle of self-organizing learning, which I call minimally invasive education.

Our modern psychological research proves that in many cases, communication in the learning process is far more important than the role of the teacher. So our pedagogical experiments are based on the assumption that children without any training, if there is enough communication process, they can learn any systematic knowledge, as long as they can have an environment where they can acquire knowledge and communicate freely......

I'm in India, and I've organized a hole-in-the-wall project, and you're really going to see this, it's really interesting. We gave a computer to the children in the villages where there was no access to education, computers with internet access, and then we left it alone and did not hire any teachers for them, and the children in these villages did not know English and had no education of any kind.

Then a few weeks passed, and I went back to the village again, and guess what?

These naughty children have learned to operate a computer by self-study, and they have also learned hundreds of English words and can communicate with people on the Internet. In the village, the computer became a common toy for the children. They communicated with each other, tried and learned, and with ease, they learned to use the computer, browse the Internet, and even use the computer to play games online.

Isn't that incredible! ”

Zhang Quan nodded, he was also very surprised, under the condition of not knowing English and no one to teach, children can master the computer by groping, and even online games, which is really a bit incredible, completely breaking people's common sense.

Sugart was delighted, and he continued:

"I'm not satisfied with this one experiment, I want to try to see how it is in other places, is the result broadly representative? So, I also tried to set up such Qiangzhongdong projects in remote villages in other parts of India, there are 23 of them, and I also reached an agreement with the Cambodian government to teach them in this way.

The results were successful, and everywhere was equally successful. This experiment proves that a group of children, no matter who they are or where they are, can use a networked computer in an open space to teach themselves how to use a computer and surf the Internet, even if they don't know a little English.

Human wisdom will automatically find a way out to develop and grow themselves, as long as they are given the environment!

Language is not a problem, and neither is the teacher!

We were absolutely right!

As Sugart spoke, his pupils dilated and his face flushed, as if he had been immersed in his own world. And Zhang Quan was also very excited while listening.

Really, is that so?

If this is the case, where does he need teachers, and he still needs to worry about the language, as long as he pulls an optical fiber and connects the Internet network to the wormhole door, then the orc children there can learn through the computer?

And at this time, Sugart continued to say,

"Then I wanted to test the limits of this education system, and I set myself a seemingly impossible goal! Can a group of Tamil-speaking children in a South Indian village learn biotechnology in English on their own? ”

And then I gave the kids some hard questions, and I put some college biology research courses and exercises in my computer, and I said to the kids that there are some very difficult questions in this computer, and I wouldn't be surprised even if you don't understand them at all, and I just left.

I went back two months later.

The children were quiet when they saw me.

I asked, did you look at those things.

Yes, we watched, they replied.

Do you understand?

No, not at all.

Then I asked how long you had been working on the computer before you thought you didn't understand anything.

They say we watch it every day.

You've been looking at things you don't understand for two months.

Then a 12-year-old girl raised her hand and said, we don't understand anything other than the fact that a DNA molecule is duplicated incorrectly, which can lead to a genetic disease! ”

Hahahaha, Sugart laughed after saying that.

Zhang Quan was shocked!

……

Zhang Quan can imagine that if Sugat's experiment is true, it will undoubtedly have great significance for the times, and its significance is that it will break the traditional education industry that has been handed down by human beings on the earth for thousands of years, and will make it possible to enter a new model.

Under this new model, the education industry will face a radically revolutionary change, and after the change, the profession of teachers, which was once widely respected in society, may even disappear. Education can be implemented without teachers, so why should there be such a burdensomeness?

Under the new model, the virtual distance education environment supported by the Internet will be used as a carrier to replace the role of traditional teachers, and can play a more active role in people's subjective initiative.

This is a great revolution that will have immeasurable significance for the future of the global community!

And even if these are not mentioned for the time being, it is also of great significance to Zhang Quan, and it just solves the problem that Zhang Quan is facing.

In this model, the two biggest barriers, teachers and language, are finally solved, and the problem of education in the base mountain territory can finally be solved.

I have to say that this is really a magical way of education, and it is simply a bit incredible. So much so that even after Sugart explained a lot to Zhang Quan, he was always a little skeptical.

However, even if he didn't understand it, it didn't prevent him from making up his mind to transplant this model to the other world, and he had no more options. Zhang Quan is now fully able to meet the conditions required for Sugart's experiment, but Sugart can never imagine that the audience he will face in this experiment will never be what he imagined.

The conditions of the Sugart experiment were simple, and the key to this experiment was a knowledge base on the Internet and a community of experiments that could communicate freely.

After a few days of detailed talks with Sugat, Zhang Quan got a specific implementation plan from his hands, and decided to sign an agreement with the Khan Education Group behind Sugat, to become one of the investors of the minimally invasive education research project he presided over in the future.

Zhang Quan then began to implement the otherworldly version of the Sugart experiment.

The first is the connection of the network, which is not difficult. After he made special contact with Xiangjiang Telecom, he opened a backbone fiber optic cable that paid freely, and the fiber optic cable passed through the secret underground warehouse of the Gaia Group, and then passed through the wormhole door to the other world.

On the Gaia continent on the side of the wormhole gate, Zhang Quan dismantled all the original mature terminal equipment on the other side of the earth, servers, routers, and substation equipment, and made a lot of them for a long time, and then used a complete set of solar power generation equipment in modern society to provide them with stable energy.

Now, the otherworldly version of the Internet is completely connected, and after it is connected, Zhang Quan still needs a terminal to access the Internet, and he has built a hundred desktop computers for the experimenters to use. Now that I got it, the computers were neatly arranged, and it was like opening an Internet café in another world.

In this way, the hardware project of the experiment will be complete, and the other software parts will be equipped by Sugart, and all Zhang Quan and they have to do is connect to the network.

According to Sugart, all that left for him to do was to find the right experimenter.

After much thought, he finally chose to participate in this experiment with half orc children and half high-IQ orc adults. There are no racial restrictions for orc children, several orc races are divided equally, and among the orc adults, he chooses mainly several high-IQ orc races, cat people, minotaurs and leopard people, and he chooses dozens of each race.

A total of more than 200 experimenters, divided into several groups, took turns using computers to access the Internet, understanding and accepting the knowledge base of the Earth Sugat Khan group on the Internet. When they don't have access to the Internet, they are required to discuss in small groups to exchange their ideas. Through communication, they corroborate each other to achieve the purpose of learning.

After building it all with his own hands, I watched as the plan finally began to be executed. Zhang Quan felt that he had some enlightenment.

This group of friends will become the spark for the replication of civilization, and receive the education of the earth's civilization through this new education model. And if all goes well, as Sugart said, then the knowledge from the earth's civilizations will be used as a vehicle to spread across the Gaia continent with their minds as a carrier.

This is the invasion of civilization, the self-replication of knowledge, it cannot be stopped like a flood, once this scale continues to spread, the influence will continue to spread, and the social model of the earth's civilization will undoubtedly be replicated in the world of Gaia. Under the power of an advanced modern civilization like the earth, at least a primitive society like the orcs could not resist its penetration at all.

What will be the result of such a mixture between the two civilizations? Even the initiator like him could not have expected it.

However, in a short period of time, this kind of impact is not very large, after all, the difference between the two civilizations is too great, and the obstacles are not small, and the Gaian orcs will not be able to understand what comes from Earth so easily. However, as a leader, it is inevitable that you must always find a way to prevent it from happening, and to strictly limit the movement of all those involved in the experiment, and prohibit casual contact with other people.

Sowing a seed in this land, what will be harvested in the future? Is it hope? No, maybe it's the devil, he thought.

He knew that he had opened a Pandora's box.
