D. Christodoulou's '7 myths about education' book debunks common 21st century ideas about education.
The 7 myths are:
Facts prevent understanding.
Teacher-led instruction is passive.
The 21st century fundamentally changes everything.
You can always just look it up.
You should teach transferable skills.
Projects and activities are the best way to learn.
Teaching knowledge is indoctrination.
This article is thought provoking, what should we keep from the past and what new approaches should we embrace? Makes for an interesting discussion.
