School is where you learn to learn.
A teacher with an advanced degree and decades of experience devotes her time to figuring out what helps you comprehend the world around you.
And, if she’s good, she imparts that lesson to you as well.
Imagine if we took that away.
Imagine a world where there are no schools – just free range children plopped in front of a computer or an iPad and told to go learn something.
No schools, no teachers, just gangs of students walking the streets, stopping along the way to thumb messages to each other on social media, play a video game or take an on-line test.
That’s the world many EdTech entrepreneurs are trying to build.
And school vouchers are helping them do it.
