The World Peace Game - John Hunter
“John Hunter puts all the problems of the world on a 4’x5’ plywood board — and lets his 4th-graders solve them. At TED2011, he explains how his World Peace Game engages schoolkids, and why the complex lessons it teaches — spontaneous, and always surprising — go further than classroom lectures can.”
Amazing talk. I highly recommend watching if you have 20 minutes to spare. Such wonderful ideas some people have.

“By leading the Americans in his audience at TEDxPSU step by step through the thought process, sociologist Sam Richards sets an extraordinary challenge: can they understand — not approve of, but understand — the motivations of an Iraqi insurgent? And by extension, can anyone truly understand and empathize with another?”
Step outside of your box.
