<human>: Hear me out: I think the majority of people could agree that the current education system (primary and secondary) doesn't seem to yield the desired results in many cases. The list of problems is lengthy: schools fail students; schools fail teachers; teachers fail students; grades don't reflect development; schools fail to keep up with technology's ability to revolutionize teaching; education seems to stratify people racially, socially, sexually, etc. The problems abound. However, I recently viewed this TED talk: 

And now I am entertaining the idea of revolutionizing education (at least public education). How do you reform education drastically? I feel like top-down reforms and programs do not seem to provide the right result. In my personal experience as a teacher in the public education system, I have seen firsthand how students immediately become bored with traditional education. Is there a way to reform it that doesn't ruin the lives of children but, rather, actually makes them want to learn and helps them excel?

Can you provide a brief overview of the text?
