Edu 2.0 :: Edu 2.0

What is edu 2.0?

That's a question that "we" shall try to answer in the next year. How do we define education in this new era where learning (esp. English) goes beyond grammar rules learned in a classroom? Here in Korea, esl (english as a second language) is going through some fundamental and radical changes that will determine the fate of this country as it seeks to gain a foothold and capitalize on the emergence of Asia - economically and otherwise (http://www.worldmapper.org/posters/worldmapper_map164_ver5.pdf)

There is a palpable need for English.

Kids ▶ no English ▶ no good college ▶ no good job ▶ hard life.

Adults ▶ no English ▶ hard to get promotion
(side: more frequent M&As in Korea predicted for this year involving large foreing national companies. How's it gonna feel being stuck in the elevator with your new boss when you can't say two words to him?)

So what's everyone to do? Well, don't worry there's help on the way. In the form of what? How bout this to start....
