An old concept previously used by Socrates and currently by Montessori schools that thinking can lead to knowledge is better than trying to provide knowledge to develop thinking is being reintroduced into our educational system. This educational model has been expedited by the internet by allowing student to be exposed to concepts out of the classroom on videos at their leisure and reserving classroom (face to face time) for the development of those concepts with exercises and problem solving. Has anyone had experience with this model? Did you see significant improvement in learning? Do you think that this collaborative environment might in some cases prevent the fullest development of individual creativity?
