All I Want for Christmas.....

Technorati Profile

I am rather hoping that Obama will see fit to set up tele-learning for prisons that links an instructor and a student through a phone line and a shared screen, such that the instructor can work one on one with a student across the country, thus minimizing risk to the instructor, and increasing one on one interaction. The instructor could opt in for the prisoner seeing him or her, depending on rapport established. If we are going to keep recidivism down, we need to get the educational level of "graduates" up.

Another idea for inmates - transcribing books, the parts that OCR can't get, the parts that we're working on, slowly, with ReCaptcha.
