1. Educationproject: „Teachers, leavethemkidsalone!” byAbsinthe-minded 30 March 2011

2. MainIdea: Do kidsneed to bebored? Do scholarsneed to beforced? Do children like to be taught? NO Solution: Let kidsteach their own classmates and themselves

3. Publicopinion: Well, theoretically it sounds wonderful! If somebody did such a thing, the effect would definitely be positive. It sounds unrealistic. I affraid that tasks, pupils would make for each other would be to easy. That could only worsen the whole situation with the education system. I think it would be more interesting for kids to study this way. They like freedom. B.Alina (Student), AnnArbor, MI, USA V.Mark (Soldier), TelAviv, Israel D.V.Hodun (Trader), Sumy, Ukraine

4. Publicopinion: Kids would absolutely like it. On the other hands it might be hard for teachers. I think someone should make experimental classes based on this new program. The success of this idea would heavily depend on where it would be used. I don’t think that it could be done in post-soviet countries. Though Europe and America might give it a try.

5. Aim of interview: We have chosen Doris PACK because she is the most influential person in the European Parlament when it comes to learning and teaching. Besides she was a teacher once. It would be interesting to hear what she thinks about our idea and maybe we could interest her in our vision of the future of studies. 1)What do you think about the current education system? 2)How have education concepts changed since the you were a teacher? 3)Why do you think children get bored at schools? 4)What do you anticipate from the education in future? 5)Do you think that basic concept of kids teaching kids would benefit their ablility to study?
