Seth Godin’s manifesto
titled, ‘Stop Stealing Dreams’ showed me why Education is everyone's business.
There are chefs, artists, engineers, sportspeople, scientists sitting in the classrooms of the world today. Then why must we ask only educationists about solutions to the problems of education. Not every student will get into education. Many of us have spent 10-15 years in the education system of our countries. So we all have a right to express our views on education whether we are an academic, an artist or just a student. Education is everyone's business!

In his TED Talk by the same
name , he describes eight ways education can re-thought and here I have
included a small commentary on each point mentioned.
