To Abed 3e's mattered in designing mucrofranchises- effective (served purpose) , efficient (positive cash flow because they couldnt be beaten for price, quality, value provided mother worked hard). Fortunately Abed's first responsibility was for 100000 person metavillage so he could design the wholesale value chains the villagers needed in such a way that national ownership of core agricultural markets could be put in ownership trust of the poorest village mothers.</p><p>During brac's first decade, there was among people with american connections mainly the chen family to write up brac's dev marketing reality- which martha did fter 8 years of being employee number 3 (to Mt and Mrs Abed) at brac- soon after this muhammad yunus started up grameen bank with a government ordinance but the new economics model of aid had 11 years prior consolidation around Bangladesh Rural Advancement Collaboration. We have learnt a loot from Muhammad Yunus but the entreperenurial revolution of the world's most effective development model out of extreme poverty can only be understood by clarifying the foundation grassroots networks of the womrn business ladies of BRAC- farmers health servants teachers crafts people climate adaptation connectors inter-generational investors in sustainable communi8ty building -and that's part 1 during the 25 yeras to 1995 that village mneant bno electricity grids. Then came solar and mobile and the greatest digital vilage leapfroging collaborations to end poverty</p><p>Yunus grew up in his family''s jewelry business in Chittagong and his life was changed with a round the world trip to the annual boy scouts summit in Canada about the same time mud 1950s that Abed who was 4 years older had started studying Engineering in Glasgow. Yunus own strudies took him as Fulbright scholar to Van De Bilt Tenessee as a graduate the year that bussing and other discrimimation against blacks was enbded. He took to extrovertly to youth networking and brilliant speechmaking in ways that were later to compelement Engineer Abed. But this still dthis oes not explain how/why when USA started to annually celebrate microcreditsummits from 1997- Yunus stories instead of Abed curricula got 99% of showtime - other than in USA human development economics is led by PR not reality-making.

Since IBM brought the concept of “Smarter planet” in China in 2009,
smart cites construction has become a new trend of urban development. By
2013, there were 193 approved pilot projects of smart cities in China.
Smart city has been viewed as a key strategy to promote industrialization,
informatization, and urbanization. The rapid development of smart cities in
China is largely attributed to the cooperation between IT companies and
the government. This paper will study how smart cities have been developed
in China. It will pay particularly attention to the roles and relationships
of various actors (including the government, market and society) in
the development of smart city, which further divided into four layers, that
is, sensor layer, network layer, platform layer and application layer. This
article will finally summarize Chinese experiences on the development of
smart cities and giving the visions of future development. </span></div>

In 2016 we continued to witness evolution, growth and progress across this interdisciplinary engineering science sector as energy technologies improve and deliver efficient, safe, environmentally friendly and economical extraction, conversion, transmission, storage and use of energy. As technology drivers accelerate we are also seeing the emergence of new business models focused on peer-to-peer interactions across the grid and this is precisely where Ethereum has a tremendous opportunity to add efficiency gains in 2017. As the physical infrastructure of the grid continues to decentralize and more prosumers come online, ConsenSys is working hard to re-imagine and build solutions at the business logic and transactional layers in an attempt to more elegantly describe what is happening in the real world as these changes occur. We are building next generation Ethereum enabled smart grid technologies with our utility and power production friends and partners all over the world.</div>

Ethereum smart-contract blockchain systems will actuate near frictionless price discovery mechanisms for intermediation. Intermediaries like banks, accountants, notaries, custodians, trustees, agents may have to begin to find higher value propositions for customers as the cost of trust will plummet. The macro net result should be greater value to the counter-parties of a transaction and less value to the intermediary. Moreover, there will be anthropological research and writing on the value (or lack thereof) of the “middleman” in 2017 similar to the way Nobel laureate <a data-href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Nature_of_the_Firm" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Nature_of_the_Firm" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482877196640_75508" style="-webkit-padding-start: 0px; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.439216); background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: linear-gradient(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.6) 50%, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 50%); background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 1.07em; background-repeat: repeat-x; background-size: 2px 0.1em; cursor: text !important; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Ronald Coase</a>explained efficiencies in “The Nature of The Firm”.</div>

It's always good to see Bitnation taking a stand. "We are anarchists. We are very open about that," Abhimanyu Dayal, representing, told judges who wanted to know how governments around the world would respond to the prospect of being essentially outsourced to the blockchain. "It's already happening. We have signed an agreement with the Estonian government," answered Dayal.</div>

Bitnation believes that borders amount to Apartheid, and that human rights should allow jurisdictional arbitrage so that laws themselves can be appraised via a peer-to-peer system of reputation. It was also interesting to hear a pitch from "The Humanitarian Blockchain", a developing-world human-rights blockchain initiative, being built out of Bitnation.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; padding: 0px; width: 736px;">
One of two winners on the night, Blockverify, uses blockchain, QR codes and 2D barcodes to authenticate products ranging from luxury goods to pharmaceuticals. Provenance and supply chains have become a busy blockchain space, so it was refreshing to hear about a cure for counterfeit medicine. Pavlo Tanasyuk, founder of Blockverify, pointed out that 10% of all medicine worldwide is currently counterfeit, and as<span style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"> much as 30% in some countries. </span><span style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">"If you think about these numbers, it's like three jumbo jets full of people crashing every day because of using counterfeit medicine."</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; padding: 0px; width: 736px;">
<span style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Tanasyuk said that Blockverify is working with a large partner in the pharmaceutical arena and aims to facilitate new European regulations coming in 2017, whereby pharmacies would have to certify medicines at point of sale.</span></div>

The other winner, as voted by the audience, was <span class="skimlinks-unlinked" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Smoogs.io</span>, which does micropayments for digital content, pricing it "below the pain point of customers". Founder Neha Murarka provided a solid and well-measured pitch stating that the system would allow content, such as ebooks, to be sold in increments – a chapter or a page at a time.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; padding: 0px; width: 736px;">
<span style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">She said that <span class="skimlinks-unlinked" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Smoogs.io</span> was working with a couple of partners: one offering video tutorials and another, a self-publisher looking for alternatives to the likes of Amazon. Micropayments and cryptocurrencies are an intuitive match. However, it must be said this space is already rather well marked out by the likes of Satoshipay, which also offers slices of digital content of any size. That is not to say there's no room for more players within crypto and micropayments; clearly it's getting tougher to come up with untapped use cases within blockchain these days.</span></div>

With this in mind, a must-mention is Creative Barcode. This start-up provides a blockchained record of intellectual property, but its USP (for my money, a winning proposition) is its focus on Unregistered Design Rights. Founder Maxine Horn's background is in design and the start-up has forged partnerships with leading agencies and institutions in that area. She said: "There are more than seven million unregistered industrial designs launched every year. There is no licencing infrastructure, no easily accessible design ownership data and no easy way to trade."</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 17px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; padding: 0px; width: 736px;">
She added: "3D printing is going to disrupt the entire design and manufacturing sector. In the near future 3D printers will be affordable to consumers. So that's going to open up a whole new market to licence 3D designs, not just by businesses, but by consumers." <span style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Sadly, this is yet another application of blockchain that threatens to put lawyers out of a job. Sniff.</span></div>

Also worth a mention was ICHAIN, an IoT application designed by Andrei Baloiu to preserve hashes of frames/videos in CCTV systems to the blockchain for additional security. Asked how pressing this use case was, Baloiu said that critical CCTV footage can quite often be tampered with or "lost". He had also rigged a Raspberry Pi to capture a frame of the audience, which was then added to the Bitcoin blockchain.</div>

Matchpool calls itself a decentralized matchmaking protocol that claims to use Ethereum smart contracts within its application. The project has a two-year roadmap and a token called “Guppy,” which “will play an integral role in its development,” the Matchpool team explains.

<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
<span style="box-sizing: border-box;">Shortly after the successful crowdfunding, one of the co-founders of Matchpool, Philip Saunders, detailed he was leaving the project. Furthermore, Matchpool investors were shocked to hear that </span><a href="https://etherchain.org/account/0x72a7197bbccbe6ee1e9c688645436ed06017768a" style="background: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #fbba16; text-decoration-line: none !important;" target="_blank">$1.6 million in ether</a><span style="box-sizing: border-box;"> was removed from the ICO multi-signature address.

<b style="box-sizing: border-box;">Over the last two days, 37500 ETH has been withdrawn from the multi-sig wallet by the CEO Yonatan Ben Shimon without any explanation or announcement due to the need for “hedging.” Yonatan keeps claiming he’s working with Bitcoin Suisse and it’s all ok, but so far I haven’t seen any evidence of this. I suggest you all demand and explanation and keep a close watch. In all likelihood your guppies are worthless.</b></div>

Shimon and his team were initially silent about the withdrawal, and investors are afraid they might’ve been taken.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
However, team members have stated that funds are secured in bitcoin due to Ethereum volatility.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
The news about the Matchpool situation immediately went viral across the cryptocurrency community throughout many social media platforms. The co-founder who left the team, Saunders said Matchpool was “well below the standards needed for a blockchain project” and because of the lack of transparency, he must leave.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
Matchpool team members are denying all “exit scam” accusations and explained the funds were converted to bitcoin due to Ethereum’s recent price dive.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
One of the other Matchpool co-founders believes a screenshot of the funds on a Trezor wallet confirms the money is safe alongside an <a href="https://blockchain.info/address/392eAQg9FioqDn7T3mqkTu8bcFfux1YJAq" style="background: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #fbba16; text-decoration-line: none !important;" target="_blank">address</a> with $1.7 million BTC. However, many cryptocurrency enthusiasts are skeptical since Saunders has left with so many accusations on the table.</div>
<div dir="ltr" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
“We sold the Ether for Bitcoin to hedge against the volatility of the Ether price. We have the responsibility to build a great project and that is what we are going to do. You can see all the evidence of the cold Trezor wallet here,” Matchpool representative, Maximus Richardson <a href="https://medium.com/matchpool/matchpool-optimisation-strategy-b9373ae67871" style="background: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #fbba16; text-decoration-line: none !important;" target="_blank">explains</a>.</div>

<em style="box-sizing: border-box;"><strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">We had a miscommunication within the team and I want to correct my original post. The funds were not sent to BitcoinSuisse.

Matchpool has joined the ranks of the many appcoins who’ve raised millions in ICOs over the past year. Meanwhile, many have wondered how legal these types of crowdfunds are in the eyes of the law, especially after the DAO debacle last summer. With the Matchpool situation, it’s possible the funds were simply moved to escape volatility.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
Yet, cryptocurrency spectators believe it is odd a co-founder left while leaving behind very serious accusations of shady activity. Exit scams in the crypto-world are not taken lightly.</div>

<br />
blockchain technology provides a means for people to share reliable and tamper-proof lists of information known as distributed ledgers.<br />
<br />
On 31 May 2016, a 31-member group launched the Financial Blockchain Shenzhen Consortium that will collaborate on the creation of group-wide blockchain projects focused on the development of a global securities trade platform and services for offering credit, digital asset registry and invoice management.<br />
Financial Blockchain Shenzhen Consortium consists of Tencent, owners of WeChat that has more than<br />
760 million users; Ping An Bank, one of China’s biggest government-owned financial conglomerates;<br />
and 29 other notable Chinese and international finance and tech firms.<br />
In July 2016, Alibaba’s Ant Financial and the Microfinance Management arm of China’s Foundation for<br />
Poverty Alleviation concluded an agreement to jointly help lift people lift out of poverty with the aid of<br />
the internet and blockchains to more than 300 national and provincial counties by 2020. Donors on<br />
Alibaba’s “Ant Love” charity platform will be able to track transaction histories and gain a clearer<br />
understanding of how their donations are used.35 36 37<br />

Page 14 China’s Digital Economy Quest 18 October 2016<br />
<br />
Unlike America’s digital giants, blockchain technology is being aggressively pursued by China network and financial technology (fintech) giants, such as Baidu, Tencent and Alibaba. These fintech pioneersalready have more clients and payments systems than the entire, predominantly government-owned, Chinese banking system, and are using NTR technology, systems and processes to create new Chinesedominated global banking system.<br />
In June 2016, Baidu, China’s Google, invested $60 million in the U.S.-based Circle Internet Financial to expand in China using Circle’s proprietary bitcoin blockchain and artificial technology that allows<br />
Chinese clients to access a highly-secured money transfer and payment network. Circle’s technology<br />
allows customers to sign up via email or text, snap a picture of their debit card, credit card or bank<br />
account to pay or get paid instantly at no charge without limits on how much they send, receive or cash out. Circle China has been created as an independent company with local investors to capitalize on China’s masses that are comfortable with social media payments and money transfer.<br />
<br />
Implementation of blockchain technology in China will be much different from the Western approach<br />
of employing blockchains from within the banking system. China intends to utilize fintech industries,<br />
like those described above, to push technology into government-controlled institutions. To do so, the<br />
Chinese government has instituted a half-way house, called the China Ledger Alliance (aka<br />
ChinaLedger), which will be managed by a non-profit research institution (Wanxiang Blockchain Labs).<br />
ChinaLedger is currently an alliance of a dozen regional commodity exchanges, equity exchanges and<br />
financial asset exchanges with the aim of creating an open source blockchain protocol. Numerous<br />
leading Western blockchain and network technology experts are participating as key members of<br />
ChinaLedger’s “advisory” counsels. As reported by China Daily, the leading English-language news<br />
organization in China, blockchain technology will be used in China's fledgling social security system that<br />
currently has $285 billion under management (the United States Social Security Trust Fund is $2.8<br />
trillion) but increasing at a rate of 25% per year.38<br />
According to Citigroup, “financial-technology companies in China have passed a ‘tipping point’ in<br />
disrupting the banking industry owing to their surging number of customers….Chinese fintech firms<br />
have now gained considerable market share in e-commerce and third-party payments, and are faster<br />
than lenders in offering alternatives to traditional banking services”. 39 According to The Wall Street<br />
Journal, “the future of banking is in China”, namely with tech companies that “use internet payment<br />
systems as a wedge into an array of money-management services”. 40chris macraehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15269142429457914077noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8348042170577322602.post-23504907487880277932016-10-10T16:36:00.002-07:002016-10-10T16:36:23.990-07:00Brand Reality This 3rd curriculum launched (1999 triple special issue of journal of Marketing Management)<br />

Sony is one company looking to take advantage of the blockchain, technology that underpins cyptocurrency bitcoin, after the Japanese company announced plans to build a centralized platform for educational assessment and testing scores.</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1477514226060_4590" style="-webkit-padding-start: 0px; background-color: #f9f9f9; box-sizing: border-box; color: #3e433e; font-family: "Open Sans", HelveticaNeue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
The Sony Global Education division of the company has developed technology that uses the blockchain to house educational data that can be securely shared with other services and third parties. Sony said it believes it could “realize an entirely new infrastructure system” with this technology, which it described as having the potential to be a central system for candidates and their test results, much like a universal education ID or a more official version of resume sites like LinkedIn.</div>

The company explained more in <a href="http://www.sony.net/SonyInfo/News/Press/201602/16-0222E/index.html" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1477514226060_4592" style="-webkit-padding-start: 0px; background: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #089e00; cursor: text !important; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">a press announcement</a>:</div>

For example, after taking an examination to demonstrate his or her academic proficiency level, an individual could direct the testing organization to share the test results with one or more third-party evaluating organizations. This would be a first if implemented on a system-wide basis.</div>

Sony said it hopes that the potential of its platform will attract educational institutions and other sources of learning to take part and add further value to the concept. For example, securing the participation of universities and high schools — which may or may not be among Sony’s targets right now — would mean candidates school and graduation records are baked into their profile and accessible to third parties, such as when applying for jobs or further education. Sony added, also, that the technology could be applied to medical care, the environment, energy and other areas beyond education.</div>

This is very much a concept at this point, with the company estimating that it won’t begin development of this “new educational infrastructure” until 2017. When it does get started, it plans to initially integrate its own ‘Global Math Challenge’ — a test that has so far been taken by over 150,000 people from over 80 countries worldwide — and other Sony education initiatives. But the broader goal is fascinating, a platform for sharing your qualification and educational history.</div>

<span style="font-weight: inherit;">David Shorthouse</span> from Guardtime, the world’s largest blockchain company, shared insight into how blockchain can revolutionise healthcare and how it already is. In Estonia, Guardtime is securing 1 million EHRs. Estonia turns to electronic solutions for anything from voting to taxes, these e-citizens are part of the e-Estonia movement.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #666a73; padding: 10px 0px 0px;">
Only 1 in 5,000 medicines in development make it to market, with a drug typically taking 12 years to develop from initial discovery to market. Estimates vary but the Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry puts drug development at £1.15bn per drug. If we are to drive down the costs of medicines, we need to drive down the costs of clinical trials. Riddled with inefficiencies, the clinical trial process is ripe for disruption from patient recruitment to optimisation of data analysis. But how can data, digital and technology fit in a complex, lengthy and high risk process? To what extent are regulators open to new innovations? How is pharma investing in new approaches and technologies?</div>

Ant Financial, the online payments affiliate of Alibaba and the world’s second most valuable private technology company with a valuation of more than $60 billion, announced they are rolling out blockchain technology for payments.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
Blockchain tech will be first applied to Alipay’s donation platform to increase transparency and provide a trust mechanism with each payment and spending of donations recorded on the blockchain.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
Ant Financial further raised the concept of “<a href="http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9806E6DF163EF933A15757C0A9619C8B63&sec=&spon=&&scp=2&sq=patient%20capital&st=cse" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #4db2ec; text-decoration: none;">patient capital</a>” which was described by Thomas Friedman as having “all the discipline of venture capital — demanding a return, and therefore rigor in how it is deployed — but expecting a return that is more in the 5 to 10 percent range, rather than the 35 percent that venture capitalists look for.” A new model which, combined with a blockchain, may help non-profit organizations increase self-sufficiency and turn donations into a more sustainable endeavor.</div>

<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
Ant Financial and the Microfinance Management arm of China’s Foundation for Poverty Alleviation (CFPA), China’s largest and most influential non-governmental organization that specializes in poverty alleviation, have reached a strategic co-operation agreement to expand a model that takes targeted measures to help people lift themselves out of poverty with the aid of the internet and now blockchain tech to more than 300 national and provincial counties within three years.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
Unlike America’s internet giants of Apple, Google, Amazon and Facebook, the Chinese equivalent have begun exploring and investing in blockchain technology. Baidu, China’s google, invested in Circle, one of the biggest bitcoin companies. Tencent, owners of Wechat, joined a financial blockchain consortium with 30 other finance and tech firms and Ping An Bank, one of China’s financial conglomerates, joined R3.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
China’s banking infrastructure is not as developed as in the west. Some are therefore speculating that blockchain tech and the internet may allow the country to leapfrog the banking system just as cell phones allowed developing nations to leapfrog phone lines.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
According to a <a href="http://www.wsj.com/articles/the-future-of-banking-is-in-china-1464802904" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #4db2ec; text-decoration: none;">Citigroup report</a>, fintech companies in China have passed the tipping point, with more customers, some 450 million a month, using Ant Financial’s Alipay and other fintech apps than traditional banks. They also tend to be more innovative in payments as WeChat’s 760 million users send 36 billion “red packets,” a lottery like changetip, but with yuan, with more than eight billion red envelopes sent in just one day on the Chinese new year.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
Blockchain technology, therefore, may find readier adoption in the world’s second biggest economy as shown by its dominance in bitcoin trading and mining. Wanxiang, one of China’s richest companies, has strongly backed this new invention, funding Wanxiang Blockchain Labs which is to hold Shanghai’s Secong <a href="https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/industry-to-descend-on-shanghai-for-the-global-blockchain-summit/" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #4db2ec; text-decoration: none;">Global Blockchain</a> Conference in September as well as creating a new VC fund focusing on blockchain investments.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
In the west, giant tech companies seem to be more focused on blockchain’s industrial uses with Microsoft, IBM, Cisco and numerous other tech companies launching a number of internet of things (IoT) initiatives to give physical items a basic level of intelligence by connecting them to the internet and blockchain tech, potentially ushering what some now call a fourth industrial revolution.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 26px;">
We may therefore see financial applications of blockchain technology more widely used by the world’s second biggest economy while the west focuses on its advanced technological knowledge to employ blockchains for industrial uses.</div>

for those of us who started Entrepreneurial Revolution debate 40 years ago that learning has to be the main 21st C economy the first shock is that the word of the rich, "social media" and public service left it as late as 2014 to inaugurate the first million dollar teacher awards<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5d7drWUdpNdyezKnuR3nnanpmCS4qaePdEQGq4UxyaeHB2mTcApbU-s1rZ6E3PbLWF-A8AFu3-PcpU4G9BEsaN2w6zNeRml0_QwI_q08CLNI5XI0bxBca7cySLzV-flXdupwo4ZRTi4Jw/s1600/milliondollarteach.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="141" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5d7drWUdpNdyezKnuR3nnanpmCS4qaePdEQGq4UxyaeHB2mTcApbU-s1rZ6E3PbLWF-A8AFu3-PcpU4G9BEsaN2w6zNeRml0_QwI_q08CLNI5XI0bxBca7cySLzV-flXdupwo4ZRTi4Jw/s400/milliondollarteach.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
the second shock is how little learning media give to this- so what did the winner do that other teachers (or schooling systems) can now be emulating - what can be learnt from the the runners up; can we broaden the prize - either more philantropists and so more prizes; or other prizes more targeted at teacher collaborations- why arent their reality tv apprentice shows led by worlds greatest teachers instead of over-trumpers - what happens to a nation who idolises the wrong sort of wizard apprentice (search right kinds eg <a href="http://www.baidu.com/s?ie=utf-8&f=8&rsv_bp=0&rsv_idx=1&tn=baidu&wd=mit%20sorcerer%20apprentice">MIT sorcerers apprentice </a> fir menu of my favorite square mile (kendall station boston) walking tour -where yours? chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk)<br />
<br />
most of all why not a blockchain on each winner and near winner- so that we who value the greatest #learninggeneration can map all the solutions that could now be open spaced around million dollar teacherschris macraehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15269142429457914077noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8348042170577322602.post-23858559171309628832015-01-30T04:53:00.000-08:002016-10-22T04:54:07.823-07:00<div class="story-body__introduction large" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #3a4149; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.0769em; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">

This year saw the first Global Teacher Prize award ceremony being beamed around the world.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Nancie Atwell, a teacher from Maine in the United States, received the million-dollar prize and then, in the spirit of public service, announced that she was giving it all to her school. Applauding her on stage was former US president Bill Clinton and, looking down benignly from a video screen, Bill Gates.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Much less conspicuous was the man who had come up with the idea in the first place. Sunny Varkey was the founder and funder of this global project to bring status and recognition – as well as some glitz and glamour – to teaching. But Mr Varkey admits that before launching the project almost everyone told him it was a terrible idea.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
They thought it would go against the grain to see an individual teacher getting a prize of a size usually associated with a film star’s payout or a banker’s bonus.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
But he ignored them and followed his own instincts.</div>
<h2 class="story-body__crosshead" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #19232d; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 21px; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Teacher status</h2>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“Teaching needs to be the most important profession in the world and they’ve got to be given their due respect,” says Mr Varkey.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
It irritated him that reality TV stars were more likely to be splashed across magazine covers than people who really made a difference, such as teachers.Sticking to your own instincts in the face of opposition, says Mr Varkey, is one of the characteristics of an entrepreneur.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“This has been the story of my life,” he says.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
The Indian-born billionaire, based in Dubai, is one of the most successful education entrepreneurs in the world, operating private and state schools in 14 countries – the greatest number concentrated in the Gulf – but also stretched across the Middle East, Asia, Africa, Europe and the United States.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Mr Varkey says he wants to expand his GEMS education group, suggesting the Far East, Latin America and Africa as likely target markets.</div>
<h2 class="story-body__crosshead" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #19232d; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 21px; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Migrant school</h2>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
But having made a fortune from education he now seems more interested in giving it away, through a philanthropic foundation with a mission to promote and improve teaching.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Teaching is in his blood. Both his parents were teachers, Christians from Kerala in south India, who migrated to Dubai in 1959.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“It was a Herculean task,” he said. They travelled to the Gulf by ship and then set up a private tutoring business, before opening a school for the local Indian community.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Sunny, as a youngster, helped by driving the school bus.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“I remember the respect that my parents were given – and back in India, teachers were held in very high esteem.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
But he was “shocked” at how this high status seemed to be disappearing.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“As I got more involved in the education business and setting up more schools, I kept finding that the image and the respect for teachers was in decline.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“You have teachers who have helped to make prime ministers, presidents and scientists and nobody cares for them,” he says.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
When he went to the World Economic Forum in Davos he found the same lack of attention among the political elite. “There was no-one highlighting teachers and education.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Based in Dubai, a city which speaks every language apart from understatement, the Global Teacher Prize was built to be big enough to impress. The award ceremony attracted world leaders and some of the finalists went to the Vatican to meet the Pope.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
The message was that teaching didn’t always have to be the poor relation.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“I talk about it all the time, how important the teacher is in all our lives,” he says.</div>
<h2 class="story-body__crosshead" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #19232d; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 21px; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Teacher shortage</h2>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
But in swathes of the developing world the big problem for schools is that there are no teachers at all. The United Nations has warned that more than four million extra primary and lower secondary teachers will be needed in the next 15 years in sub-Saharan Africa.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Mr Varkey, a Unesco goodwill ambassador, has funded the training of 12,000 teachers in Uganda through his foundation, with plans to expand this to 250,000. For every private pupil they teach, they aim to reach another 100 pupils outside of fee-paying schools.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
There is also an innovation unit, experimenting with ways that technology can be used in the classroom, to improve teaching or to help teachers reach more pupils.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“Technology has done so much in other industries and I think education is going to follow suit, it’s only a matter of time. Technology is going to play a part in delivering education and bringing down the cost.”</div>
<h2 class="story-body__crosshead" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #19232d; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 21px; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px 0px 24px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Global citizenship</h2>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Dubai is a global crossroads, and the Varkey schools grew as the Gulf’s oil and gas industries attracted more overseas workers and demand rose among a wealthier local population.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
But the wider Middle East region has faced conflict and deep tensions between religions, countries and cultures.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Among Mr Varkey’s next projects is the idea of teaching “global citizenship”, promoting tolerance and mutual understanding.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
His own story represents this multiple cultural identity – an Indian Christian running a business in an Islamic Arab country, his international schools as microcosms of different cultures working together.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
For better or worse, he says it all comes back to what people are taught.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“All the problems and solutions in the world are in education. Look at the divide between rich and poor, peace and terrorism, the gender inequality, lack of skills, unemployment.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #606569; font-family: "Merriweather Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 1.857em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
“It all comes back to education.”</div>
