What happens in our education system?
• 41% of 25-34 year-olds in the UK have attained a higher level of education than their parents
• Expenditure on educational institutions increased from 3.6% in 1995 to 4.5% in 2009
Problems with the current system
• Inequality of knowledge
• Effect on individuals
• Effect on community
My story
Potential
• We‟re stronger together
• Reengage with the community
• Create a localised resource network
• Improve our well being
Community Skills Bank
• A system to get in contact with other skills
• You register your skills and those you would like to learn
• For every hour you teach your skill you gain one skill point
• You can use these points to “buy” teaching from others
• Everybody starts off with one skill point
Community Skills Bank
• Focus on basic, everyday skills
avoid the danger of taking away professional jobs, such as bricklaying and plumbing;
friendly interactive environment;
• A rating and comment system
improve quality of teaching;
help others to choose between different “teachers”
Local community
• Local skill exchange
• Replicable
• Social
• Viral
Impact of the skills bank• Friendship
• Empowerment
• Ownership
• Sharing Information is „free‟ on the net …
The skills bank offers face-to-face learning
Considerations
• Funding
• Barriers
• Getting people through the door
Word of mouth; internet forum; notice boards; flyers; targeting places people hang out
Future
