The Devil is in the DataGraham Brown-Martin
“They’ll have that repeated forty or fifty times more before
they wake; then again on Thursday, and again on Saturday. A
hundred and twenty times three times a week for thirty
months. After which they go on to a more advanced lesson.
Till at last the child’s mind is these suggestions, and the sum
of the suggestions is the child’s mind. And not the child’s
mind only. The adult’s mind too—all his life long. The mind
that judges and desires and decides—made up of these
suggestions. But all these suggestions are our suggestions!”

Teaching as a delivery systemSkills and Enterprise minister Matthew Hancock has unveiled plans for teachers to take a backseat when it comes to "imparting knowledge", with computers and personalised online tuition leading the way.
“The message I’m trying to send is that technology is political, and that many decisions
that look like decisions about technology actually are not at all about technology – they
are about politics, and they need to be scrutinised as closely as we would scrutinise
decisions about politics.”
Evgeny Morozov
"That’s why I always say that teaching is an art form. It’s not a delivery system. I don’t know
when we started confusing teaching with FedEx. Teaching is an arts practice. It’s about connoisseurship and judgment and intuition.
We all remember the great teachers in our lives. The ones who kind of woke us up and that we’re still thinking about because they said something to us or they gave us an angle on
something that we’ve never forgotten."
Sir Ken Robinson
“I wouldn’t trust an algorithm to do that”
