Bring a great teacher with you wherever you go.

For more and more people, the boundaries that once separated us from each other have virtually disappeared. We are always seconds away from accessing a world of people and ideas—it's up to us to harness this unlimited connectivity to improve ourselves, rather than allow our screens to distract and mislead us.

 

cothinkers is founded on the principle that mobile technology is capable of revolutionizing education: student + screen + teacher + screen = enlightenment. Online communication has become so powerful and synergetic that a web chat and a shared document can be just as effective as an in-person meeting, if not more so. A student in a study hall in New Mexico or a living room in Jakarta can discuss an essay with a teacher at a coffee shop in New Hampshire or a kitchen table in Johannesburg, as if they were sitting next to each other—but with the added benefits of simultaneous digital collaboration and instant access to comprehensive information, and without the restrictions of specific location and time.
