“If content delivery remains the focus, whether
with/without tech, result is shallow learning. Deep
learning comes with engagement”

1. Talk to ‘strangers’
2. Be transparent ~ embrace open
3. Imitate and innovate
4. Realise it’s about changing education, not how we deliver it (Stokes 2015)
Accept that this is a process, not a programme
Starting point - use your tablet / laptop for your own learning
Something to think about
Standford University’s 2025 project foresee that students will “declare a mission, not a
major”
