Creating a Free Online School |
Sharing and growing the Tree of Knowledge is one of the goals of the Church of reality. One way to do that is to host free online education on a variety of subjects. Entire online courses will be donated free of charge and the peoples of the world will be allowed access to the education free of charge. The smarter people are - the better they can explore reality together.
We want to attract the best teachers and the best programmers to create an interactive online school in order to deliver quality education to a huge number of people. In traditional classroom settings, a good teacher is limited by physical constraints to a small number of students per year. It also requires people to be in the same space and time location. An online school would break these barriers and allow an unlimited number of students in any location at any time to receive a quality educational experience which combines the best of a team of teachers and other professionals to deliver education efficiently and effectively.
Classes will be available under the GPL license which requires that anyone who improves the course has to contribute the improvements in the course back to the maintainers who created it. This will help ensure that the classes will grow in both numbers and quality.
The School of the Church of Reality will be available to public and private schools as well as for home schooling. Anyone of any age in any location will be able to learn. And - this will give people more of an opportunity to become educators. After a teacher retires, they can contribute a lifetime of teaching to the public and their knowledge and experience will be passed on long after they are gone.
