Peter Mellow's insight: Interesting quote and perspective: “The most destructive educational technology we have is the large lecture hall. I would be happy if these technologies forced us to stop putting 400 students in a room,” he said, noting that such a change would be costly for institutions. “But if we’re really committed to teaching and learning, maybe we’re starting to learn that the transactional model isn’t going to work anymore.”
