excerpt:

 16. Teachers are “the problem.” 
 17. A pre-test for the test to predict the performance on the test that itself is meant to predict understanding is an efficient way to process learning. 
 18. Engagement means learning. 
 19. Adoption of trendy learning tools will automatically improve learning.

 21. Depth of knowledge doesn’t matter. 
 22. Curiosity is for cats.
