    Listen carefully at around 27:00 about uncertainty of impact on new social connections via screens... 38:00 "We need to maximize the ration of learning:teaching" 53:00 Teacher needs to be more of a philosopher than technician 62:35 onward: Teachers wait for "training" because that is the traditional paradigm of learning. As we get more "sophisticated", we stop learning (on our own) and wait for training (the teacher as technician/pedagogy).
