Keep It Real. No More Theory.
You can do something--that's real life. Or you can talk about doing something, which is theory. Too much theory and there's no real life left.
I think that education to an astonishing degree is theory-driven. That's professors talking, talking, talking.
This means concretely that a bunch of highly paid experts could spend a whole day talking about education and never mention a single thing that students need to learn..
Sometimes, just glancing around a room or a street or a scene I'll see something that was never mentioned when I was in school. Actual knowledge, actual facts, these should be the entire essence of teaching and education but in fact they're often the last items mentioned.
