Schooling is an interesting concept. What do parents really want out of their children’s schooling?
Would our children be in the flow in their professions? Would they be able to pursue their passions? Would they be loving, caring individuals? Are today’s schools and schooling systems geared up to create happy, fulfilled individuals who would engage in professions that maximize their potential?
I am really interested in knowing the views of parents, current and potential, on the education system that prevails in today’s world, that focuses on producing great achievers. But is that all there is to education?

First of all, sorry for the late response. WP seems to have put your comment in the spam folder. š¦ I am from India, so the English I learnt is British, but I have lived in the US for 10 years, so there could be an American flavor.
Thanks for asking.

I sent a proposal to MacArthur foundation on the concept of Open classrooms, which I later proposed as an IGF workshop theme. The idea has not taken off as intended, but this is something that can address your concerns about the quality of education in our schools. Please take a look at the blogpost http://isocmadras.blogspot.com/2009/04/alexandria-idea-to-be-fine-tuned.html and the embedded PDF file.
