e-Learning: Breaking Barriers, Creating Revolution

When I first read about Sugata Mitra and his hole in the wall experiment and the successive efforts, I thought that this was what the promise of eLearning was all about.

Sure, so far we have been connecting with eLearning as being all about corporate training, performance support and so on. But how many of us have even begun to realise the power that this medium has to bridge the huge chasm that exists between the haves and have nots.

The technology and tools are all there, it is inspiring to see people like Sugata take the newest technology and methods of learning to people who do not even have access to basic educational facilities. He has shown us that if our efforts and intentions are honest, we have the power to spark off a revolution.
