On right of whiteboard:

On the left side of the whiteboard:

  -class size/connections with students

       traditional college is irrelevant

-education in classrooms doesn’t deal with patterns in the world      

 -tech used more than textbooks

             
   -disconnections with tech can be formed into engagement with tech       

-comfortability with tech, constraints of traditional education

-tech can be beneficial or detrimental     

-tech can be distracting

  -students grow with tech use but  teachers are not using tech     

^block learning^    

mass education= quantity of work vs. quality of work

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

students pay for this??
