Mr.Fischs article about a Low Fidelity Education made me think about the education American kids get not as individuals but as a nation. As a nation are we incorporating online and hybrid classes to better American kids education because as Mr.Fisch pointed if someone else creates a better education system we might not like the outcome. I think that if Mr.fisch’s outcome comes true then the U.S. as a whole will not be capable of maintaining our status of a world power. This is because if we have smarter people from another country with higher education the people with the better education will get the better jobs and therefore that country who reinvented education will have a better economy and the country with more money will be the new ultimate world power.

Another point to consider is Mr. Fisch comparison of “low quality” mp3 compressed files with “high quality” uncompressed files in this example he compares the mp3's to online hybird classes and high quality files to our current face to face system. I must agree with Mr.Fisch that if we did make an education system right now our current system wouldn't look like the one we currently have. Although we can't really redesign our education system right now Does anybody have any ideas what a system outlined by Mr.Fischs article look like?
