New teaching: Supercool School

I was invited by a friend to join Supercool School on Facebook and he sent a pamphlet about the goals and the reasons of this project. The document explains in a logical and teleological way what they understand for free learning.

In it there’s a message that I mostly liked: “Creativity always builds on the past” which is also a message form a video promotion for creative Commons in YouTube. The idea and the video both say something we have always known. We can not escape from the past, and project our future from it.

When the anti-copy fighters are forcing governments all over the world to prosecute peer-to-peer like criminal actions, it seems to me that some people believe to be so powerful that they don’t owe nothing to the past and everyone owes them everything for their geniality. And that’s false.

Supercool School is based on creative commons and free knowledge exchange but also on letting everyone to grow and evolve with selfesteem at the pace they like.
