A scholar and researcher called Sugata Mitra worked on a project called Self-Organised Learning Environments (SOLEs) and on the School in The Cloud. The basic idea for SOLEs, is for the learners to work in a group of four (they choose their groups) on a single complex question. Each group needs an internet-enabled laptop to do the work. The groups are given a question such as “Why do we slip on wet surfaces?” or “Do trees breathe?” The learners are asked to give a presentation as a report back after a given time. Other than the instruction and the computers, they are largely left to answer the question on their own.
