  • Enjoyed 1 day of #altc2012 my org could afford. So many attendees here don't realize how exclusionary the cost is to small institutions. #
  • There are many ways to acquire and conceive of the foundations of any subject to achieve fluid mastery (like jazz improv). #altc2012 @rlnoss #
  • @rlnoss Agree with need to master form to be able to improv. But I want to give people time to be drummers as well as pianists #altc2012 #
  • "Algebra is not a good way to teach algebra." says @rlnoss – Great summary of pseudoeducation #edchat #altc2012 #

  • RT @AlannahFitz: RT @WarwickLanguage: when using technology there are gains and losses via #altc2012 < Old Kuhn idea about scientific revs #
  • "Paintbrushes were also invented" says @rlnoss true of so many things we take for granted in education: the blackboard, classroom #altc2012 #
