  • Many faculty may hope
    to subvert the system, but a variety of social structures work
    against them. Radical experiments in teaching carry no guarantees
    and even fewer rewards in most tenure and promotion systems, even if
    they are successful. In many cases faculty are required to assess
    their students in a standardized way to fulfill requirements for the
    curriculum. Nothing is easier to assess than information recall on
    multiple-choice exams, and the concise and “objective”
    numbers satisfy committee members busy with their own teaching and
    research.
  • In a world of nearly infinite information, we must first
    address why, facilitate how, and let the what
    generate naturally from there.
