I just want to give a quick shout out to 42.
They're closed for Covid19 right now. But if you can wait for them to open up, this is a good place to look into - https://www.42.us.org/ https://www.42.us.org/ or https://www.42.fr/ https://www.42.fr/ (if you're in Europe).
- grenoire 6y ago42-styled schools also exist, generally loosely affiliated. A friend of mine started CODAM (42 in Amsterdam, essentially; https://www.codam.nl/ https://www.codam.nl/) around a year ago and has been quite happy so far. I recently started working with him on a couple projects and honestly I can tell the education and the syllabus he got was high quality.
- arvindamirtaa 6y agoGood to know about CODAM. Will check it out. Thanks
- FeeJai 6y ago42 SV in Fremont has closed down for good. Students have been transferred to an online curriculum managed from Paris and were kicked out of the dorms in a rather hastily and stresful manner. Despite having its own flaws, I was a great fan of 42 and think this is a shame
- arvindamirtaa 6y agoOh really? That is indeed a shame. I thought they were closed for now due to the pandemic and may reopen "soon".
- jokethrowaway 6y agoI've read their philosophy and it sounds great Does anybody know any private school following the same philosophy for kids education? I think finding different forms of education will be especially important for boys: girls thrive in the current school environment but boys seems to do much worse.
- arvindamirtaa 6y agoI know this sort of instructor-less has been experimented before. Sugata Mitra tried this in Indian villages called "Hole in the wall project".
