A REAL paradigm shift in education - 0 views

Joel Scanga on 15 Feb 13"Traditional instruction places far too much emphasis on content. The problem isn't just that what students need to know can't be known. The unreasonable amount of information dumped on them, the brief life in memory of most of it, and easy electronic access to a near-infinite amount of it, make merely delivering information a poor use of time. Focusing on the real world rather than on second-hand textbook versions of reality, and understanding the process by means of which sense is made of that world, are keys to new worlds of performance."
