This is what I'd love to see in all schools around the world, not only this particular approach to learning but an education that truly brings out the potential in students. Humans have the potential to do extraordinary things, but a lot of us haven't had that potential brought out of us nor do a lot of us believe we have that potential.

What a fantastic way to foster creativity through iteration and risk-taking.
