We as a society have not adapted our education system to accommodate for having the internet. 100 yrs ago it was necessary to go to school for years to store up knowledge gained from books at a central location.
Now we have near infinite knowledge at our fingertips. We no longer need to store up the knowledge for life. We can learn as we go. This is a major change that we have not considered.
Now the secret to success is learning to ask google the most valuable questions in the moment. Like how do I retire young? How do I build a house? How to do video editing? How do I design a website? What’s the easiest way to make money online?
You also now have the ability to answer any question as an expert. Google provides us access to information from worlds top experts on topics which gives you the ability to give expert level advice within minutes.
Learning as we go is the future of education. We now have the ability to learn a new skill every day and we don’t need to pay for schooling any longer. We need to learn to use this powerful tool to empower ourselves in each moment. We no longer need to remember what we learned in school 20 yrs ago. You can google up to day info in the moment.
The days of trusting people with degrees is over. People now have the ability to educate themselves better than a lot of professionals. Instead of calling a doctor for advice you now can google. Instead of calling a lawyer you can google. The days of an authoritative expert class is coming to an end.
We haven’t adapted our education system yet. The next innovation that will transform education is blockchain tech. Yes a system will most likely be developed that will reward people in crypto coins to learn. The education system of the future will most likely be automated and run on blockchain tech.
There are already developments in the works. Edgecoin is a current development that could change things.
Time will tell what will happen but you can only begin to imagine how technology is going to increase humanities intelligence greatly. Could the ultimate goal be to plug our minds directly into the internet? There is technology being developed. We will take a look at that in future articles. Please share your thoughts below.
