Quotes from the episode

Every technology suggests how it should be used.

–Steven Michels

The hub of any class should be the discussion board.

–Steven Michels

Teaching should be learner-driven, not tool-driven.

–Steven Michels

Technology is better at bringing the world into the classroom than it is in taking the classroom out into the world.

–Steven Michels

Anything we can do as faculty members and professors to harness this natural love of learning that our students have … I think is a good thing.

–Steven Michels
