Another day, another part of my interview (the fourth) with Clay Shirky (author of Here Comes Everybody). And today's topic is education. Clay rates the question (which came from Rebecca Caroe via twitter) as one of THE toughest and most important facing our generation. It is "How do we examine and score collaboration in education?" Clay is an educator himself - at NYU. He believes there is a collision between the internal message in colleges and universities, which values and encourages collaboration, and the external message - which is that the education system does quality control of individual minds. (image via flickr by kokeshi) He has no quick fix, but instead believes finding the right solution will be "the work of a generation". Watch the video below. See him in person here. Buy his book, here. I'm speaking at Widget Web Expo in London today. If you're there, come and say hi!FasterFuture is regularly updated by David Cushman
