                    1. RS: Why are you teaching subjects? They reflect interests of faculty, not necessarily the students. Sujects don’t connect to each other. #IEF2018

                    Courses tend not to be experiential, need to make courses about life experiences. #IEF2018

                  Lecture courses make college feel like Summer Camp, a 4 year vacation. Students take courses for wrong reasons, not to learn. #IEF2018

                Primary goal of college should not be the preparation of researchers. People who go outside of academia are considered losers by faculty. #IEF2018

              Traditional classroom practices devised by Romans to teach oration and declamation for children of rich parents. Average students don’t get anything of this. #IEF2018

            He’s now making fun of our course descriptions. “Appreciate”, “Examines”, “Explores”. Calling them baloney. #IEF2018

          What would a course look like without current baggage of education? Coursework should go beyond boundaries of current university system. #IEW2018

      Students get thrown in the deep end with code. Curiosity drives the code exploration. Learning Objectives are doable and achievable tasks! Thank goodness. #IEF2018

    Teach students how to learn and discover with just in time learning. Teaching should be about learning cognition, not the subjects. #IEF2018

      Current education is training people to sit still and shut off. Put students in situations of increasing complexity where they have to diagnose issues. #IEF2018

        Talking about navy's liberal arts curriculum: "The Romans created the liberal arts curriculum, but doesn't train the soldiers of it." #IEF2018

          How to design courses: work backwards from an amazing task, such as "design 787". Work backwards and forwards and figure out what you need to include. Remember the purpose of your course! #IEF2018

            Find the main skills used my real life people in the field and teach to those. What does a real person do? How can you teach them? #IEF2018
