The ultimate learning digital world for kids might not be possible considering the diversity in our world. Also, I doubt authorities look at the current learning environment as damaging.
English would be nice, but I would also accept lojban or hawaiian.
Or maybe you are right - I am sure learning experts will know what is the right thing to do.
I would like to see that hurdle removed from other disciplines.
Same goes for international politics and peace, your neighbour becomes a lot less threatening if you speak the same language.
German is my mother tounge but after living in the netherlands for 4 years, I consider english my primary language, its what I write my grocery lists and diary entries in. I think the world would be a much better place if we all spoke the same language.
Also f* unicode. That unmaintainable mess of a standard. ASCII4ever!
My partner is Dutch, and I love that there are words like "papegaaiduiker" the word for puffin. Translates as "parrot diver". I think it'd be totally sad if things like that died out. I suspect if our mythical system existed, it would quickly make English the only language about.
With you on ASCII ;)
There are already some high-quality learning apps (reading and counting) for kids but the best ones are paid and they usually cover only a narrow segment in a narrow subject.
I wonder if the "authorities of Effective Altruism" would agree with me that this is a good way to spend charity money.
