Hole in the Wall!!

How's that for a headline? And no, it does not refer to a place where all perverts gather. Instead, the 'Hole in the Wall' (HIW) refers to a project started by one Dr. Sugata Mitra who one day decided to place a computer in his office's outer wall which faced a slum in Kalkaji, New Delhi. Soon, he found that the kids there had started learning which later prompted this hypothesis

"The acquisition of basic computing skills by any set of children can be achieved through incidental learning provided the learners are given access to a suitable computing facility, with entertaining and motivating content and some minimal (human) guidance."

So, instead on delving into his whole experiment, I would like to draw your attention to the terms I highlighted since it proves two things.

1. Kids, even those we label as 'hopeless' generally want to learn.

2. Its not their fault if teachers keep boring them to death.

Just think about it.
