Teach

= Applying vs. Knowing "Non satis scire— "To know is not enough." =  During a 1996 talk at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, educator and software developer Tom Snyder talked about the role of computers in education: "One thing a computer will never do is teach. Kids pushing buttons doesn’t constitute learning. Social interaction makes good learning. Learning is most often figuring out how to use what you already know in order to go beyond what you currently think..."   "Knowing how something is put together is worth a thousand facts about it. It permits you to go beyond it..."  "Learning is something that happens between two people. Technology lets people interact with each other; like a book lets us meet a person from another time and place. The transaction takes place between what the writer puts in it and what the reader gets out of it… To know is not enough—you must be able to apply knowledge and demonstrate it in context."
