One of the many stories about Einstein is that one year a group of students complained to him that he had given the exact same exam questions as the previous year. "Yes," he replied, "But this year the answers are different..." I thought of this story while reading Jon Udell's post about "open notebook science" using blogs and wikis, and the educational philosophy of Jean-Claude Bradley of Drexel University. Prof. Bradley has little use for the classroom, prefering one to one interaction with students, and virtual worlds for group discussion. Having been in the academic world for much of my career, I know that this is radical stuff. -GW
