I agree with you Deborah. The most critical skill today is the ability to sort through information (and noise) and come to a clear understanding. But more important even is the ability to balance multiple perspectives without condemning differences…

I think learning per se has not changed - we still need to engage cognition and affect, we still need to help students find an intrinsic motivation to learn. But what has radically changed (or SHOULD change) are the contents of education, and how we…

Hi Nellie - it's a condensation of lots of area's (wider than the educational domain). It's based on the fundamental question: why are we educating students? Two key answers to that are: for economic success; and to enhance the…

"The depth of your observations from last night is still resonating with me. I'm trying to think of another interview I've given where the questioner understood the material so well that he/she so regularly (and fluidly) went into new intellectual territory. I can't think of any. Pretty amazing. Thank you."
