What is HandSchooling? According to the the Golden Swamp blog it is:

Owning an individual mobile device with wireless broadband browsing activates handschooling for the student it belongs to.

Handschooling can happen in classrooms, on school buses, at home, in a village with no school, in a slum with no school, for children schooled at home, for girls not allowed to go to school -- and in any other situation where a youngster's curiosity motivates him or her to connect the the golden swamp to learn something.

This is the first I have heard the term HandSchooling. It is an interesting concept. With nearly ubiquitous internet access today in the United States what is there to learn that can not be found online?

I like the access that HandSchooling provides to populations where education might not be available i.e. poor nations and women in some countries. A mobile internet device to these groups of people is a beacon of hope.
