Yet I take the spirit of Licklider’s words to be that when we aim to perfect our lectures, assignments, and grading, we may (and typically do) neglect our own eagerness, our own continuously creative brains, and the prime pedagogical directive of education: to create situations that stimulate curiosity and self-directed, intrinsically-motivated learning.
hmm..
are we really supposed to create those situations? or get out of the way of them happening. just be on call for the happening of them.. modeling them happening in us alongside.
why must curiosity be stimulated?..
