I am astonished by how many things I have never considered before! Over the last two weeks of H800 these dichotomies have begun to crystalize in my mind:
Education vs Learning
Education (specifically schooling) is linear, systematic, ordered, knowledge focused, teacher-centric, data driven, testable, general
Learning is immersive, organic, understanding focused, learner driven, specific
Knowledge vs Understanding
I *know* how a plane flies - the air goes over the wings faster than it goes under the wings. It makes no sense to me whatsoever so I don't understand how a plane flies.
