hypnosec writes "PRISM-Proof Security Considerations, a draft proposal to make it harder for governments to implement and carry out surveillance activities like PRISM, has been floated by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). The draft highlights security concerns as a result of government sponsored PRISM-like projects and the security controls that may be put into place to mitigate the risks of interception capabilities. Authored by Phillip Hallam-Baker of the Comodo Group the draft is however very sparse on details on how the Internet can be PRISM-proofed."

When there is a need / curiosity, there won't be problem in learning. But for kids, gamification is good approach to teach the maths. For kids, it should be more meaningful while teaching the abstract concepts like numbers and operation on them. One way is to convert this abstract concept into a conceivable objects like stones. Instead of using symbols, it would be great if small pebbles are used to do addition / multiplications.
