      Do test scores measure what has been added or transformed?
  • How can we start down the path to transform the classroom?
  • The classroom of today doesn't even look that much different from the classroom of thirty years ago
  • An organization's natural instinct is to cram the innovation into its existing operating model to sustain what it already does
  • target those who are not being served -- people we call nonconsumers. That way, all the new approach has to do is be better than the alternative -- which is nothing at all.
  • disrupts that trajectory by offering a product or service that actually is not as good as that which companies are already selling.
  • the disruptive innovation extends its benefits to people who, for one reason or another, are unable to consume the original product
  • Instead, we must find areas of nonconsumption to deploy computer-based learning where it will be unencumbered by existing education processes.
  • For computer-based learning to bring about a disruptive transformation, it must be implemented where the alternative is no class at all.
  • online learning is gaining hold in the advanced courses that many schools are unable to offer
