I Am Learner

Laura Fleming used LinkedIn to recommend this post by John Connell. "No one can teach me," writes Connell. "I am not taught. I learn. I am human and a social animal, so I learn with others. I do learn from others, but what I learn is rarely, if ever, what is taught to me." The post is more of a declaration than anything else. There seems to be a trend (I saw it in Chris Lehman's recent keynote address as well) by educators to evangelize rather than to experiment and demonstrate. I can be polemical, but I really feel the scientific approach is the better one. If I did not code, create, try things out, what would I have to be polemical about?
