Improving Education Outcomes and Creating Opportunities
This chapter explores the case of the Gates Foundation's attempt to improve education outcomes through reducing class size, and compares it to the speaker's own successful program in India that prepares underprivileged students for the highly competitive IIT entrance exam. It discusses the challenges faced by these students, the creation of an engine to identify talent, the provision of necessary facilities for their success, and the goal of creating wealth and giving it away.
